That was 166 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 3: twenty twelve. He started similar. You know, we went on 167 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 3: the road the first game to New Orleans and then 168 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 3: we came home and played Cincinnati Bengals for home opening. 169 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: But it was the second game.

And the reason why I knew 173 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 3: this because I scored the first home game touchdown for 174 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,239 Speaker 3: Robert you know what I'm so, I had that stuff 175 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 3: in the back of my head and. 176 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I ain't even know I did that. 177 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Because I know PS scored 178 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: the first touchdown of his career away and then we 179 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 3: came home. I scored the first touchdown all passing touchdown 180 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 3: at home against the Bengals. But thinking about that game, 181 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: I remember, it's crazy because it's a lot of games, 182 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 3: especially that year, that I visualized what I was going 183 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 3: to do. 184 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: Now, I used to do this a lot when I 185 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: was in college. 186 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 3: We had a guy that specialized in coming talking to us, 187 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 3: putting us in dark rooms, telling us to think about 188 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 3: what we want to do on Saturdays. 189 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: And I don't know how he did it, but bro, it's. 190 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 3: Some of that stuff used to come true, really, So 191 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 3: I believe in it and I got away from it 192 00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 3: as a pro and for someone. 193 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: My reason that particular year was a year it was. 194 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 3: A lot of things that had changed for me playing wise, 195 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 3: and I wanted to get back to that old tennis. 196 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 3: So I started visualizing this stuff and I remember saying, 197 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 3: my sweetest right here, I knew my sweet was in 198 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 3: that that end zone that's going into our locker room, 199 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 3: but to the other side. My suite was above the 200 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 3: visitor's locker room tunnel. Yeah yeah, And I said, I'm 201 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 3: a score in this section because my kids would all 202 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 3: be right there. And I had all my kids to 203 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,119 Speaker 3: the game, and I remember said, I'm gonna score. It's 204 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 3: vital that I score here so I can look up 205 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 3: and the family. I'm right there. And it happened that way, bro, 206 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 3: And I'm like, dangn I I saw this the night before. 207 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 3: I visualized this, and for it to happened that day. Man, 208 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: it was not like no other man. 209 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: When you were talking about sitting in the dark room, 210 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: that brought back for me this like the college doog. 211 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: So I think we all had that same this be 212 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: by myself. 213 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,479 Speaker 2: I was playing college basketball Saint Francis University in Pennsylvania 214 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: and for home games, like you had to be at 215 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: the arena maybe three hours before, and my my dorm 216 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: room was you know, probably a let's call it a 217 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 2: five minute walk to the to the arena. I sitting 218 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 2: in my chair like this in my room in the dark, 219 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 2: it just kind of visualizes. But the crazy thing is 220 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 2: I don't know why I had this. I don't have 221 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: a baseball bat. 222 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 3: I don't know. 223 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: We want to hear somebody tell me why I was 224 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: called like, I want to even like baseball bat on 225 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: my head. 226 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 3: You want to smoke. Man, he was a basketball player. 227 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: That I wasn't under the I wasn't under the right mindset. 228 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 1: Going into a. 229 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 3: Thinking back though, So getting back to what we're talking about, 230 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 3: you know, memory lane a little bit. 231 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: What were some of the memories of your Giants matchups? Man, 232 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: that stands out to you. I always I love playing 233 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: the Giants. For some reason, I haded the Giants, I. 234 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: Feel like more than the Cowboys because for some reason, 235 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: I felt like they were a little bit more arrogant. 236 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: Had that New York. 237 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 2: I felt like they beat us a little bit, probably 238 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: on us more than any other team to in that division. 239 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: I always loved going to gainst the Giants. I feel 240 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: like I always had really good games against I was 241 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 1: able to catch a few passes from from Elive many 242 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: that was that was That was a good thing. But 243 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,719 Speaker 1: I can remember we were playing the Giants in New 244 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: York and they had three office office inve Lineman interior 245 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: office line. But outstanding. 246 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 2: Chrisnie was who was calling son in law shat ohired 247 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 2: center and a kid named Sherbert outstanding players. And they 248 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 2: used to run power all the time. The year we 249 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: talking about who was running back Brandon Jacobs. There it 250 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 2: was Brandon Jakobs, maybe. 251 00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: My brash. I believe that, oh seven, I'm like that. 252 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: Might have been the old seventeen because they had Bradshaw too. 253 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 2: So they they run power and I see it now. 254 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 2: Chris Knie is coming to pool and blocked me. I 255 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: see him in the hall. I cut him, cut him 256 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 2: at the knees, created pole. He get man, let it, 257 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: don't cut me at the knee whatever. Whatever this is, 258 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: this is a family show. So he come back about 259 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: three plays later, they run it again. Man I hit it. 260 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: I try to give him Nie surgery. The next time, 261 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: I told him up like he was. 262 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: They was hot dead. 263 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 2: All three of them try to give me the rest 264 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 2: of the game because all he kind of the worst 265 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 2: thing he could have do is let me know that 266 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 2: he didn't like that. 267 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I enjoyed going to get the giants. The giants. 268 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 2: I think one reason I like playing against the Giants. 269 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 2: I felt like when you played against the Giants, especially 270 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 2: you know earlier as coach Gibbs, the Giants had this 271 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 2: arrogance you was talking about. They had that arrogancet life. 272 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: We're gonna come in here, big boy. 273 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: You right right like like what like because they had. 274 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 2: OCM you know straight, you know straight, it's gonna talk 275 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 2: Tuck and those guys. And then on the opposite on 276 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 2: the office side of the ball, they had Shocky Tumor said. 277 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 3: They were bitch. 278 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: Some players who said that Giant were Giants. So I 279 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 2: always felt like that was one of those games like Okay, 280 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 2: you're gonna come in here and you're gonna show us, 281 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 2: but we're gonna show you. 282 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: What we got. 283 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 2: So they played our style of football, which coach Gibbs 284 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 2: was that's uh Washington Redskins football. 285 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: So that was one thing. Another thing I like and 286 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: got me excited because you know, I'm a superstar, you know, 287 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: I love playing for your. 288 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 6: I wanted to be in New York playing in the 289 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 6: Big likes favorite the Big Apple. So so when you 290 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 6: played in New York and you know Tann because you 291 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 6: was at the Jet, I see why they have Lottle. 292 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: It's a little buzz New York. 293 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 2: You know, especially lay the little brisk people out there, 294 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 2: the stars out there, so I had to perform, especially 295 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 2: under the lights, playing them at night or something. So 296 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 2: I like playing against the Giants. I like beating the Giants. 297 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 2: Unfortunately didn't beat them lot. 298 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's crazy.

So this is me playing 302 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 3: against them in New York. When I played with the Jets, 303 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 3: we was the home team, you know, we shared the 304 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 3: same stadium with the Giants, but were the home team 305 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 3: this particular game. And then my first year here at 306 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 3: home against these guys. Y'all won't believe what I did 307 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 3: to them twice, and it is probably haven't been done 308 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 3: to a team like this from no other player. I'm 309 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 3: not sure. 310 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: I'm just saying so I haven't haven't heard it. 311 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 3: I have three touchdowns in a single game against them 312 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 3: in two different places, playing for them, playing for the 313 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 3: jetobal and playing all different times. 314 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: You're not the cowboy. 315 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: Killing might be another thing, you know, you know how 316 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 3: they you know, I have so many yards against the 317 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 3: Cowboys that they call him the cowboy killer.

I mean I look at them, 381 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 3: I look at the wide. 382 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: Spread of things. 383 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 3: I don't even look at it so so much as 384 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 3: into what they've been doing lately to us. 385 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: But it's always been tough for us to take those 386 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:20,959 Speaker 1: guys down. 387 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 3: And it's crazy, the two years that we had great 388 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 3: matchups against them, that's the year they want a super Bowl, 389 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? 390 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: They want a super Bowl those years. So it's like, 391 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: what's up with that? 392 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 3: I don't know. 393 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: I don't know what it was. 394 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 2: Because when I was with the with the Rams and 395 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 2: when I was also with Buffalo, we used to beat 396 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 2: the Giants Like I didn't they wasn't they wasn't. 397 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: Casting us any proms not get him. We cannot beat them. 398 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: Bro well, because the way I think the team was built, 399 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 2: you know, and I think coach Giff, coach coach Gibbs, 400 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 2: for example, Coach Coughlin had the same type of mindset, 401 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 2: which is it's gonna be physical football. 402 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: Right. So when you think about the Giants. 403 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 2: Defense, you don't really remember the corners, even though they 404 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 2: had Will Allen and some of the guys you don't remember, 405 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 2: but but you remember the corners, but you were really. 406 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: I gotta remember, that's all I know. 407 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,479 Speaker 2: But you remember that defensive line, you remember the past rushers. 408 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 2: You don't remember the offensive around the linebackers and in 409 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 2: their linebackers. And the team was built and even and 410 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 2: we stole Griff from them too, Conigs from them, and 411 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 2: they still was built with pretty physical team. So they 412 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 2: just quite honestly, they just had some better players and 413 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: they got to be. 414 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 3: This I will say, like when you're talking about physicality, like, yeah, 415 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 3: I've always took that from every game he played against them, 416 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 3: even though on. 417 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: The outside, even on the outside, like as much. 418 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 3: As you want to sit here, and and you know, 419 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 3: we called out names all the time about different cornerbacks. 420 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 3: But I tell folks time and time again. Look, you 421 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 3: can put an average gown outside. You can put okay 422 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 3: gown outside. You can put it your son if he 423 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 3: know anything about being to dB on the outside and 424 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: line him up with the Giants defensive front. And it's 425 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 3: a hard dat man. You know, it was always hard. 426 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 3: But I used to look back and see my quarterback 427 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 3: always in this. I'm like, bro, I can't get into 428 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 3: my route. I couldn't. 429 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: I used to get to the point of the whorld. 430 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 3: I remember one game and I'm not sure if it 431 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 3: was I think it was Gigs were still here. We 432 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 3: let Jason just run two minutes. That's when we started 433 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 3: moving the ball right. We moved the ball in two minutes. 434 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 3: I'm sitting there like you mean till we got to 435 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 3: get a hurry up. And it was like, this is 436 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 3: what we're gonna do against them, and it's crazy. We 437 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 3: got ourselves back into the ball game with them running 438 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 3: two minutes, and we ran that two minutes from the 439 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: second half on through. And I was so pissed because 440 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 3: I'm like, we're gonna caught all these plays during the week, 441 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 3: I don't kicked my behind and kicked my behind, drove 442 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 3: me up and down the field, and now we've got 443 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 3: to run two minute drill, which is like basically stuff 444 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 3: spinter Like if you're on the left side, stay there, 445 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: you running, set the route on the right side. 446 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: Stated you remember your first game, we get to Giants 447 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: when you came here. 448 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 2: The only thing I remember was I just remember that 449 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 2: they were just sound. I remember who they players were. 450 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 2: I remember I didn't think Tiki was outstanding, but I 451 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 2: thought he was really good. That was your first year, 452 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 2: was four when we came out standing defensively too, Yeah 453 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: we were, we were outstanding. We were really really clear 454 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 2: behind us. Yeah we played one hundred and six, sixth 455 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 2: place more than everybody. Still were number two, right defense, 456 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 2: number three if you took the same amount of places, 457 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 2: were number one.

And I think, first and foremost, man, 544 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 2: how can we be successful running the football against this 545 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 2: Giants team. 546 00:25:58,520 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 3: I think one of the things that stand out to 547 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 3: me is just you have to like even watching a 548 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 3: film from from the Tampa game, I saw a couple 549 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 3: of sets that I love. When I saw the two 550 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 3: Titians on the field at the same time out the gate. 551 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 3: Only thing we did wrong with that when we threw 552 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: a pass in it and the ball went you know, lost, 553 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 3: like seventeen y fifteen yards whatever it may be. 554 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: I was a little nervous. 555 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 3: It was a little nerves but you know what you 556 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 3: tell you got to start that way, you know what 557 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 3: I mean, You got to crawl for you walk. 558 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: And I think you know he learned. 559 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 3: He learned right then and now, okay, what else can 560 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 3: go worse than that? 561 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:29,719 Speaker 1: It already happened. 562 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: But well, no, I was just thinking about I was 563 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 2: about to talk about Aaron Jones, but Aaron Jones he 564 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 2: was able to run the ball against the Giants. 565 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 3: So so just thinking about what we have, you know 566 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 3: in Ekola and b rob Man. 567 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: I think be. 568 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 3: Rob and Ekler both strapped for some great yardage last 569 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 3: week against a pretty good Tempa front. And like, folks, 570 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 3: folks getting this stuff, and you know they they they 571 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 3: under gumers in the bunch right now thinking about the 572 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 3: one week after one week when I'm like game, I'm 573 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:01,679 Speaker 3: not trying. 574 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: To get too far ahead Tampa. 575 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 7: Like Frand said this all week last year, last week, 576 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 7: going this is a playoff caliber team that we're facing 577 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 7: that been together for a while, so it wasn't a 578 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 7: lot new for them, you know what I mean, It 579 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 7: might be a player to missing. 580 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 3: You ain't got shock, you ain't have one more or two. 581 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 3: I think you ain't have White, the other linebacker but 582 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 3: you got the most of the nuclears still there. And 583 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,479 Speaker 3: I heard I heard folks on the radio scene they 584 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 3: had two of their cornerbacks go out. 585 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: What we just talked about, If your. 586 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 3: Defensive front is sound, it don't matter who's lined up 587 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 3: on the outside, as long as they played within the keys. So, man, 588 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 3: I love what we saw last week, but it's gonna 589 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 3: be tough for this week going against some pretty good fronts. 590 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 2: And well, also when you talking about sets, you know 591 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 2: it starts with you know, Aaron Johnson was able to 592 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 2: get your adds to the edge. And I thought some 593 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 2: of when you're double a team and the tackle. I 594 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 2: think Dexter Lawrence is a problem. You know, you better 595 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 2: you got guys, but it's not like if you sing 596 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 2: on block him on a consistent basis, he will be 597 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 2: a disruptive force. So I think what we can do 598 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 2: is that kind of like that duo action, double team 599 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 2: up to the linebackers. I think their guys are built more, 600 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 2: especially uh Thibodau and guys like that, they like to 601 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: get up field. I think we can double team straight 602 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: up to the linebackers and established run because you're gonna 603 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 2: have to. 604 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna have you. 605 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely, you're talking about seting the tone. Now, you gotta 606 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: get that Lawrence block man. You got to get him blocked. 607 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 2: He was a mother with Dallas when you look at 608 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 2: I wouldn't watch the film against the Viking. Now, that 609 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 2: defense in general didn't play great, but that defensive front 610 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 2: led by him, right man, he was a problem. He 611 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 2: was a problem early in that ball game. So definitely 612 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: got to get him blocked, double team blocked. Try to 613 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,479 Speaker 2: creach the edges I would like to see and hopefully 614 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 2: the time of possession is a little bit more balanced. 615 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: Like in our first in our game against Tampa Bay, 616 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 2: we could sustain drives and then the Buccaneers conversely, we're 617 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: able to to dominate time of possession. So we weren't 618 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: able to give b Robin and Eckler a bunch of carries. 619 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 2: They finished the game with only fourteen Chre carriers. Jaden 620 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 2: had the eleven rush or sixteen rushes, and some of 621 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 2: them most of them were scrambles. But figuring out a 622 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 2: way to let those guys get a lot more touches, 623 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 2: definitely over over twenty touches. 624 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: I would love to see those guys. 625 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 2: Well, you know now, that we have to see Jayden 626 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 2: on the field where he had the eighty eight rushing yards. 627 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 2: I think now that the Giants have seen that, does 628 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 2: that changed the way the front seven plays. 629 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: Knowing that he can scramble. 630 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 2: We gonna be aggressive because they could be a dive 631 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 2: with a quarterback keep or rpo what we'd like to 632 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 2: say the RPO game. Do you think that plays a 633 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 2: factor for the Giants now, no question. 634 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 3: I think it plays a factor for any team they 635 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 3: facing going forward. I think that's you know, that's something 636 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 3: that we talked about earlier this week. It's just gonna 637 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 3: ast certain d ns and linebackers that normally see things 638 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 3: and like they want to hit that hole they got, 639 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 3: They gotta they gotta hesitate. They gotta to make sure 640 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 3: that he ain't giving them the okie dough. You know, 641 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 3: he ain't giving them the banana in the tailpaper. And 642 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 3: that's what you saw in that game against Tempa. Like 643 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,479 Speaker 3: they played great, but before you know it, you know, 644 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 3: Jaden got the ball, He's. 645 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: Going in for the touchdown. 646 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 3: So I think it's going to give us the advantage 647 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 3: in that sense of knowing that I can't when we 648 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 3: play great guys like a Lawrence, like a Thibodeau, like 649 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 3: a Burns. When you play guys who are great at 650 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 3: doing what they do best, running up that field and crashing, 651 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 3: crashing things, they gotta stay true. They got to hesitate 652 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 3: a little bit. They got to give you the benefit 653 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 3: of doubt. Knowing that you got two lead through guys 654 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 3: you got to worry about. 655 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that that should open up more running lanes 656 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: for the running backs. On that his own restuff. 657 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 2: But you know, when you think about most of most 658 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: of Jaden's damaging his success. 659 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: Running the ball scramble. So what I'll see is that 660 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: I kind of looking at the Giants. They got a 661 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: new defensive coordinator and Shane Bowen. 662 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 2: He came from from Tennessee a year ago, where Mink Martindale, 663 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: the Giants defensive coordinator, is very aggressive, very aggressive, love 664 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 2: to blitz the Giants. 665 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: They didn't blitz a lot their first game. 666 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 2: Played a lot of more four man rushers, letting those 667 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 2: guys kind of get out to the quarterback. 668 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: You'll see those. 669 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: Pass rushers have to be a lot more disciplined in 670 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 2: their rushlans, knowing the fact that hey, Jaden can hurt 671 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 2: you rushing the football. 672 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: He's not afraid to scramble on you. He's not afraid 673 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: to tuck it and run. 674 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 2: I think by them playing a little bit more zone coverage, 675 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 2: maybe it'll be more opportunities in the passing game. And 676 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 2: as we look at Jaden, you know, he completed seventy 677 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 2: seventy percent a little over seventy percent of his passes. 678 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: We know about the rush yards Tanner.

Hey, 724 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 3: I don't see what I like. I'm gone going forward. 725 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 3: I'm sure teams are going to present that because they 726 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 3: see just what we saw. He had a guy too, 727 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 3: but it wasn't clipped to him. So guess what they're 728 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 3: gonna do. They're gonna copycat and say, you got the 729 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 3: same coverages out there at him, and let's see what 730 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 3: he do. Now. With that being said, if he hit 731 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 3: that pass the terry down the sideline, it changed the 732 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 3: whole ball game. It gets you now in your secondary Oh, 733 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 3: they could get behind us. 734 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: Now let us back up a little bit. 735 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,959 Speaker 3: That's changed its cover two to we're gonna we're gonna 736 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 3: we're gonna do a two two under. We're gonna drop 737 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 3: a little bit more. Now you drop a little bit more, 738 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 3: I can get my running backs out there. I can 739 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 3: keep dumping the ball of them. So a lot of 740 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 3: stuff goes into place. When you want those lanes to 741 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 3: open up. But first, I think I said before, you 742 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 3: got to be able to establish a kind of balance 743 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 3: with both the run in the past and I think 744 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 3: last week we was more trying to run it, and 745 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 3: then we started checking down, which those checkdown passes. 746 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: Are like a run. 747 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 3: You know what I mean, you know those slip screens 748 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 3: and those checkdowns is considered the running this league.

I think going into that game, 752 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 2: because Tampa blitz so much, you want to you was like, okay, 753 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: we got to get the ball. Well, we gotta so 754 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 2: if you see, there wasn't a lot of I mean, 755 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 2: we had a couple of shot down field, but there 756 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 2: was a lot of like screen right now right now 757 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 2: running back, Yeah, running back passes things like that to 758 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 2: get it out of his hands, and he will, yeah, 759 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 2: he will be they'll open up, and he also will 760 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 2: have a better understanding between what's opening the NFL. 761 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 1: And in college and like, okay, you know, take those chances. 762 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 2: I know you're like, do I want to throw and 763 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 2: not want to turn the football over because there was 764 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 2: some opportunities. 765 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, he'll look back.

Making sure you 891 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 2: pay attention to those things and are able to do 892 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 2: it in the game. How do you do that well? 893 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 2: From an early age and you coach, we all coached 894 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 2: a little league. The number one thing we talked about 895 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 2: is a lineman and assignment first thing, and that's gotta 896 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 2: be that's a priority to you personally and to the 897 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,839 Speaker 2: coach because and you know, being a Greg Williams guy, 898 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 2: if you out of position or didn't align correctly, he 899 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:34,959 Speaker 2: would take you out. 900 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: So I think that's the pride thing. I think guys 901 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: got to come in and hold themselves personally. 902 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 2: Everybody at each position gotta hold themselves to a higher 903 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 2: standard and do your job. So a lot of it 904 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 2: play has to be you have to be Nowadays, we 905 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 2: tell the kids, you gotta be locked in. You got 906 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 2: to be always focused.
