Uh, it's Philly. 14 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: You know it's gonna be a tough environment. It's gonna 15 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: be loud. Uh, they're gonna say a lot of things, 16 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: especially with the team. You know, I guess you know 17 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 2: they're not playing their best ball. They were like so 18 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: you know they're gonna be coming and fired up. So 19 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 2: the team's gonna come fired up, the coach will be 20 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 2: fired up, fans gonna be fired up. It's Christmas Day, 21 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 2: you know, one of only two or three games I 22 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: think on TV that day. So it's gonna be a 23 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 2: fun environment. As a player that's competitor those environment, you 24 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: want to be a part of and those games will 25 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: be a part of. And like I said, they're a 26 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 2: tough team. I'm abad to play our best ball to 27 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 2: come up with a win. 28 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: Obviously given a game playing stuff up or whatever. When 29 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: you look at tape, what do you see of them 30 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 1: in the last three weeks or so, because they've seem 31 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: to have lost their way a little bit as. 32 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 2: Well as they play, don't We're not getting caught caught 33 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 2: up in that. They you know, they've lost the last 34 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: three or however the main games that still Fletcher Cocks 35 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 2: over there. You know, that's still Jalen Carter over there. Uh. 36 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 2: You know they got studs all around, especially on the 37 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 2: different side. Uh. Fortunately enough, I don't play both sides. 38 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: I don't have to go against the offense. But on 39 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 2: that side they have a lot of playmakers too. So 40 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: no matter what happened in the last three games, Uh, they're 41 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: still a great team. They're one of the best teams 42 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 2: in the NFL. You know, you know the environment is 43 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: gonna be you know, it's gonna be a tough game. 44 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: And I said I when we come up with a win, 45 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 2: we gotta player best ball. 46 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: I knew, you just want to win. I just I 47 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: knew you guys just want to win a game, period. 48 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: But the fact that you have, you guys haven't beaten 49 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: them much around since you've been around here. How much 50 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: would you relish altering there bad. 51 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 2: Saying years that's the truth? You know, we can't beat 52 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: we haven't been being Philly. You know, I don't think 53 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 2: that sits well anybody's stomach. I don't think it sits well. 54 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 2: You've been here for a long time, especially got to 55 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: be in the longest. Check myself. You know, we hate 56 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 2: saying that. We hate answering the questions and how how 57 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: would it feel to winning Philly or not being Philly? 58 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: You know, we're sick with Tarvor and one way we're 59 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: gonna change that by going out there and win the game. 60 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 2: So uh, for some reason, that's been a team in Dallas. 61 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 2: There's been the two teams we struggled to beat over 62 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 2: the over the last couple of years, in the last decade. 63 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 2: To be honest, and if we want to get to 64 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: where we want to be, those are teams we gotta 65 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: start beating. And that's just that's just the facts. 66 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: I remember years ago you marveling that you were running 67 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: down the sideline and next you look next to you 68 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 1: and it's Fletcher. 69 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: I mean, is he just amazing to still. 70 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 2: Be He's he's impressive. I don't want to, you know, 71 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 2: downplay any of the other guys because you know, from 72 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 2: left to right, I mean, like it's it's pretty impressive 73 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 2: the team that they're able to build, and you know, 74 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: the front seven that they have, and even in the 75 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: back end outside the sleigh is out. But yeah, Fletcher, 76 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 2: I don't get it. I don't know how he's still 77 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 2: just dominant. But like I said, as a competitor, it's fun. 78 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: It's fun going out there and line up and you 79 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: see ninety one. Uh, you see Beg. You know who's 80 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: gonna be over there chapping from start to finish. Uh, 81 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 2: these are fun games. Obviously hasn't been that fun because 82 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: we've been losing a lot, But as competitor, those are 83 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 2: the games you want to be a part of it. So, 84 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: like I said, it's gonna be a fun, tough game 85 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: and tough envi our man, we gotta all come come 86 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 2: alive for this game. 87 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: You've seen anything different on film. 88 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: Obviously, they change their play calling to play calling this 89 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,119 Speaker 2: past week just in what you're watched or even noticed. Yeah, 90 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean two different play callers. You can 91 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: see a little difference from Seattle to the weeks prior. 92 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 2: But you know, I'm not too necessarily sure what's who's 93 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: gonna call the plays? And for me, I just watched, 94 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: uh watch tape. Uh. You know, I study a lot 95 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: of individuals, to be honest, to know the scheme of 96 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: it and the scheme they're gonna play, but study individuals 97 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 2: how they attack and how they play, how to react 98 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: to what a back do or alignment and stuff like that. 99 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 2: So whoever to play call or whatever they do, we've 100 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: got to go out there and line it up, you 101 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: know who. We got to block, block and right and make. 102 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: Plas you say, your your snap percentage has been down 103 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: a little bit, especially the last game. Were you one 104 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: hundred percent? Were you available like or was something going 105 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: on there? 106 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, clearly last week I definitely my you know, 107 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 2: stat percentage Jeffly wasn't as high. I guess that kind 108 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: of could play into you know, an the game kind 109 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 2: of got in hand. You know, I really don't play 110 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 2: much in the situations like that. You know, you could 111 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: look at Dallas, you could look at any game I've 112 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 2: been a part of. Really, but yeah, I didn't make 113 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: too much of it. Uh, you know, I just do 114 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 2: what I'm max to do. Uh yeah, whenever my numbers 115 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 2: ready to be called, and try to make to play 116 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: that I mean, to make one. 117 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 3: Have an opportunity. You your third down usage in particular, 118 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 3: probably about the last six weeks has definitely decreased a 119 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: little bit. What do you make of that? 120 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I said, that's I think that's a question 121 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 2: better for you know, Calf and all those guys. I'm 122 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: not really making too much of it, no matter what. 123 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: I have full belief in any of the guys that 124 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 2: going after me bridges a vet. I think great Grays 125 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: are really good rookie you obviously, I think they probably 126 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: got to see a little bit more of him too. 127 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: Like I said, I think it's talented. So but Brita 128 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 2: going there and third down, I feel confident, uh that 129 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: he's gonna make the protection if I'm mean fe confident 130 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: will make the protection. I don't think my usage a 131 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 2: third down is you know, a negative thing or you 132 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: know them viewing as me not being to be a 133 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 2: third down. I think I've shown that throughout the years, 134 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 2: and especially so far in my two years with them. 135 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: But yeah, just whatever it is, you know, just keep 136 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: going with it and I just gotta find a way 137 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 2: to make better play, especially in a big game coming 138 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: up this week. 139 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: I just really quick physically. 140 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: How have you been feeling awful? I mean, I feel 141 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 2: like it's what week is it? Week fourteen? Week fifteen? 142 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 2: Everybody in the NFL at this point, no one's really sixteen, 143 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 2: and no one's going to sit here and be like, 144 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 2: oh I feel fresh. I feel like exactly. I feel 145 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: like I'm week one. But yeah, that's part of being 146 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: a pro, taking care of your body. Make sure you 147 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 2: stay up on stretching the side I can punch your 148 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 2: all the little things and get ready for the games. 149 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: Said, driving into Phillies and experience in the bus, what 150 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 3: do you expect on Christmas Day from those fans? 151 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 2: I don't think it's gonna really be too much that different. 152 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 2: It's Philly, uh you know, playing them in a divisional 153 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 2: playoffs and playing them the last game of the season. 154 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 2: You know, when our stars went in playing it was 155 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 2: still a hectic environment. Uh. So you know that's just 156 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 2: how it is. It's a great environment as a competitor 157 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: to go into in this environment that, uh you you 158 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: would love to show out and play well, especially on 159 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: the national stage against the divisional arrival and the team 160 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: you know, last decade we've had some trouble with, so 161 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,119 Speaker 2: hopefully turn things around. 162 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: Just as a fan of the game and a player, 163 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 1: what do you think of the toush push do you 164 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: do you like? Do you like that play? Do you 165 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: think it should be in the game? Do you think 166 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: they should change the world? 167 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,679 Speaker 2: Why? I shouldn't be In my opinion, that just happened 168 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: to be really good at it. Not every team is 169 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: really good at toushbush. That's the truth. They're really good. 170 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: So just because they're really good at it and one 171 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: team is better than another team shouldn't be a reason 172 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 2: why we should get rid of it. Uh Now, as 173 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 2: there other things that go into it, I don't know, 174 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: like the percentages of are people getting hurt on that 175 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: play or not? You know, that's not really my job 176 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: to look into that, but watching it, everyone knows coming. 177 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: You just gotta stop it and hopefully we stay out 178 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: of a short short distance of. 179 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 3: Speak against them that you know, you you guys can 180 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 3: incorporate that you see you know, how do you how 181 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 3: do you translate it to what you guys do? 182 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I think they have a really good offensive line, 183 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 2: and I think that they have a quarterback that can 184 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: squat over six hundred pounds. I don't think a lot 185 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: of teams have that. Uh think him wrong? Uh, no 186 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: distant Tyrod or DJ or Tommy. Uh you know, I 187 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 2: know DJ gets in there and want a squat heavy, 188 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 2: but I don't think he could squat the number that 189 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: Jalen can squat. So, uh, when you have a really 190 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 2: good line, a really good center, uh, and a quarterback 191 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: to squat six hundred pounds. So unless I start learning 192 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 2: how to do quarterback sneaks, I don't know if we 193 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: really can, you know, put that into our game. I 194 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 2: think uh uh, we've been up and down this year 195 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 2: on short downs, and uh, you know, we have some 196 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: players at work and we can continue to prove on 197 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 2: in and wherever a call. We got to make it work.
