WEBVTT - Press Pass: Malcolm Jenkins

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:02.239
<v Speaker 1>Get a big play that's close to the goal line

0:00:03.000 --> 0:00:05.120
<v Speaker 1>and he feels like the defense is you know, slow

0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:07.160
<v Speaker 1>to get back. He'll hurry up to the offense. But

0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>they run the same you know play most of the time.

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:11.680
<v Speaker 1>They try to get a quick run and see they

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:14.400
<v Speaker 1>can catch you off guard no matter what the personnel is.

0:00:15.160 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>And so we were prepared for that. We did a

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:19.279
<v Speaker 1>good job, I think of getting everybody lined up, um,

0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:22.080
<v Speaker 1>and really I just shot the gap and just um,

0:00:22.160 --> 0:00:23.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, I was hoping to get a negative play

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:25.599
<v Speaker 1>and I thought that was huge that back him up

0:00:25.600 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. Um. And then the interception. Uh, I

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 1>probably owe Walter Thurman the Christmas gift because I'm on

0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:34.360
<v Speaker 1>the mendola and he did a good job, but really

0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:36.360
<v Speaker 1>just beat me inside. Um. I knew I had some

0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:38.920
<v Speaker 1>help in there, but it wasn't a true double team.

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 1>But Walter saw kind of the position I was in

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:43.440
<v Speaker 1>and he he took it and I was able to

0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 1>tip the ball up and you know I'm right there

0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>to catch it, and you know, so he really, you know,

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:50.160
<v Speaker 1>my mind made that play. I just kind of, I guess,

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:57.960
<v Speaker 1>took the glory for not a lot of people. People

0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 1>given you guys, just shot to come in here, specially

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>the way Brady's played in this place. What does it

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:09.120
<v Speaker 1>say about you guys in the game? UM, I think

0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:11.039
<v Speaker 1>it's you know, it just shows that we're resilient group.

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:13.679
<v Speaker 1>We believe in what we're doing. We believe in the

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>guys that we have UM in the building. UM. And

0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:19.959
<v Speaker 1>it was just a matter of playing the way the

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.679
<v Speaker 1>we're capable of playing. And we know for our team

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:25.319
<v Speaker 1>to win, everybody has to contribute. You know, it's not

0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:27.520
<v Speaker 1>just going to be the defense or the offense or

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:30.759
<v Speaker 1>special teams. We all got to play together to get

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:33.679
<v Speaker 1>a win. And we saw that today. We came here, UM,

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 1>beat a really really good team, beat you know, the

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 1>best quarterback in the league. UM. And that's not that's

0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 1>a tall task. They don't lose at home and so

0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 1>but this was a game that we needed to win.

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>We needed this momentum. We needed this UM it's spark

0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 1>to kind of carry us on throughout the season and

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:54.720
<v Speaker 1>the games don't get any easier for us going forward.

0:01:56.360 --> 0:02:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Previous How does this fact well, I mean, I think

0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 1>anybody who said our confidence is low was probably outside

0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 1>of our building. I think that the entire time, even

0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:07.120
<v Speaker 1>though we weren't getting the results that we wanted. I

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:09.520
<v Speaker 1>think guys were confident in themselves. I thought we were

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:11.920
<v Speaker 1>confident in the scheme and I think it was obvious

0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:13.919
<v Speaker 1>that we needed to change some things or add some things,

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>but we were confident in what we were we could

0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 1>do because we've seen it in the past. And I

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 1>think really that was Chips message from the beginning of

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 1>the week is just reminding us of who we've been. Defensively,

0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:27.880
<v Speaker 1>we've been great until as of late. Um offensively we're

0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:29.600
<v Speaker 1>been able to move the ball. You know, everything that

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:31.959
<v Speaker 1>people say that we can't do, we've done before. And

0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 1>really we just needed to get back to whatever that is.

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.120
<v Speaker 1>And so I think guys started to believe themselves. The

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>morale all week was was hired in the normal. We

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:42.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't need a huge Rock Ross speech. You know, guys

0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:44.399
<v Speaker 1>just went to work and believed in the game plan

0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and came in and executed. Feedback that you get from

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the teammates about what you and do you think it

0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 1>helped in any way? I don't know if you know

0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:03.640
<v Speaker 1>what I said helped, Uh, you know, it's really but

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.640
<v Speaker 1>what I can say is I know that our the

0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:10.040
<v Speaker 1>vibe around the building felt a lot different, I think, UM,

0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:11.919
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know if it had anything to do

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>what I said, but it was it was just different.

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:16.079
<v Speaker 1>I think guys did a great job but really detailing

0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 1>their their part of the game plan, really taking ownership

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 1>and what was going on. Uh. There was a lot

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:25.560
<v Speaker 1>of feedback going back and forth. Everybody had input, UM,

0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 1>and everybody was it believed. You know, we were preparing

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and we felt good about our plan and we felt

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>like we could come in here and get a win. UM.

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>And and that's it's been different than in previous weeks since,

0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 1>not that we haven't been confident, but it's just a

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:42.240
<v Speaker 1>different field. And so whatever that that is, we're going

0:03:42.320 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 1>to try to feed off of that and keep it going. Possibly.

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, there's there's um, you know a

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.360
<v Speaker 1>little bit of personality that comes out when when some somebody,

0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 1>especially one of your leaders, kind of uh speaks out.

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:00.600
<v Speaker 1>And not that I was calling anybody out or anything negative,

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:03.119
<v Speaker 1>because there are no problems in our building, but UM,

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it does kind of shock the system. Whatever.

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:10.000
<v Speaker 1>It starts conversations, it starts UM to open guy's eyes

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 1>as far as you know, taking ownership and UM and

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.000
<v Speaker 1>really taking a look at what's going on and what

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>we've been doing and where we can get better. Uh

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, but like I said, whatever that spark is,

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.159
<v Speaker 1>hopefully um our leaders will continue to lead and continue

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 1>to set the example or we'll keep building on top

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:31.880
<v Speaker 1>of this from Malcolm said, Uh yeah, I mean, and

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:36.240
<v Speaker 1>you know the main thing really and when where my

0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:38.960
<v Speaker 1>comments came from is just myself. You know, I feel

0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 1>like I played better when I'm coach harder, and you

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:43.719
<v Speaker 1>know I don't. I don't like to get you know,

0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:45.840
<v Speaker 1>if I when you start to play at the high

0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:47.640
<v Speaker 1>level or you want of the leaders, A lot of

0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the times you don't get coach as hard as some

0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:51.360
<v Speaker 1>of the rookies or some of you know, the guys

0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.760
<v Speaker 1>who aren't your your main guys because they expect you

0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 1>to know what they expect you to kind of correct yourself. Um,

0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 1>but you know, I'm human too and I can let

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 1>some things slip, and so I think, Uh, my coach

0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:03.760
<v Speaker 1>definitely challenged me. I know my difference back. Coach challenged

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:06.120
<v Speaker 1>me all week. Um, you know that I was gonna

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:08.400
<v Speaker 1>have a huge matchup and and have to play a

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:10.200
<v Speaker 1>big part in this game for us to have success,

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>and so I had that challenge either this week. And

0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, I think just as a team, we all

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.360
<v Speaker 1>played great. Last question for Malcolm, Sam's ready and I

0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:21.440
<v Speaker 1>got Chip praised you because he said that, well, you

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.320
<v Speaker 1>took the risk to turn this, turn the touchdown, to

0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 1>turn the interception there would touchdown. Can you talk about it?

0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.800
<v Speaker 1>You might set and I'm making that play. I mean,

0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:31.479
<v Speaker 1>anytime I get the ball in my hands, I'm trying

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>to score. And it's that simple. Uh yeah, I mean

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:38.280
<v Speaker 1>it's yeah, there's no other option. It's there's nothing to lose.

0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:40.120
<v Speaker 1>There's really no risk in it at all, you know,

0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>it's uh, I got the ball like thankfully, thankfully to

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>thankful to Walter Thurman because he tipped it up. I

0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>think made up one of the lineman miss and I

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:51.680
<v Speaker 1>felt some pursuit coming from our left, so I just

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 1>cut back and it's just a full race, all right,

0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Thanks everybody, No problem,
