1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,600
Speaker 1: We have not talked to you since you made a

2
00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: coaching changed your staff, and UM, looking back at that situation, UM,

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's not something you anticipated. Uh. Is there

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 1: anything you could have done differently to kind of patch

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: this together? And you know what is it? You know

6
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,799
Speaker 1: how unsettling was this whole thing for you? Yeah? I

7
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: just say listen on the entire situation. I made this

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,639
Speaker 1: clear from day one. I'm always gonna make every decision

9
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: and what I see is best for the team. Uh,

10
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: this decision was no different. Uh. Look, there's been a

11
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: lot of information out there, a lot of misinformation, and

12
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: a lot of people have done a lot of digging

13
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:32,879
Speaker 1: trying to find out details of situation. I'm not going

14
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: to rehash any of that. I just saying the whole thing.

15
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: We wish Mark luck going forward and the decision we

16
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: may was investing in just in New York Giants, short

17
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: and long term dog all. Hey, Joe. As far as

18
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: bringing in Dave, Um, you know how much different out

19
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: the techniques that he teaches compared to what you know

20
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: Mark's been teaching for the past however, any months and

21
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: can you implement those with in such a short period

22
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 1: of time? Yeah, we're not gonna do anything to turn

23
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: the offense upside down right here. We're continue to focus

24
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: on technique and assignments and principles what wouldn't do big

25
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: picture wise, There'll be some adjustments here and there as

26
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: we go. With six weeks left in the season, there's

27
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of continuity. We're looking to keep

28
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: you know, in place and keep improving as good the

29
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: rest of the season, Dan, But you know, will there

30
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: be adjustments as needed throughout the season. Yes, we're gonna

31
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: look at turn everyone upside down now. And then one

32
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: more thing on David mean, he kind of has an

33
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: abrasive personality, But for lack of a better term, are

34
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: you concerned at all how the offensive line room is

35
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: gonna respond to a new voice like that coming in

36
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: at this point? No, No, LVI. Hey Joe, Um, I'm

37
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: wondering if how that affects, if at all, all, your

38
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: relationship with Jason Garrett because obviously Jason and Mark are

39
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: close and Jason obviously recommended Mark to you for the job.

40
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: So I'm wondering how you fire and Mark affects you

41
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: and Jason. No, look, we're all professionals here. We all

42
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: have one goal and improving the team. Obviously, we've been

43
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: working through a season. There's a lot of new guys

44
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: coming from different spots. We're all New York Giants now,

45
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: we're all working towards the same goal. So there's been

46
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: no effectually that nature right there. I feel good about

47
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 1: going forward everybody. There was a report out there somewhere

48
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: that your offensive linemen were a little I don't know

49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: on edge about the change about the change. Have you

50
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: talked to them at all? I know there was an

51
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: elongated bye week. Did you talk to them at all

52
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: Wednesday Thursday when you made this mover? Is today the

53
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: first time you've addressed them about it? No, I've spoken

54
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 1: the entire team last week. I spoke with the offensive

55
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: line and spoke with the captains. I spoke with people

56
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: both individually and collectively based on the units. So again,

57
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: we're pretty transparent as an organization. Uh. You know, something

58
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: happens with the team, we keep it in house, but

59
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: I speak very openly with the team about it. Zack, Hey, Joe, Um,

60
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: I know part of the reporting I had to do

61
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: with you getting in and practice and kind of coaching

62
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: up the offensive living yourself a little bit. I'm I'm scarce, Like,

63
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: how common is that for you in general? Like do

64
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: you do that around the team? Like, will you go

65
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: in and interject and coach up guys in the way

66
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: you think they should be coach kind of thing? Yeah,

67
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: I have no problem at any point in any position,

68
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 1: you know, stepping in and talking to a position. Uh.

69
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: That being said, I let my coaches coach. I'm not

70
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: going to comment too much further on you know, the

71
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: base of the question you're asking. Again, there's a lot

72
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: of information out There's a lot of misinformation out there

73
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: as well, but I'm gonna keep most things in the house.

74
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: Fewer players tested positive for COVID since we last so

75
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm curious if you've had any updates on if they

76
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: have a chance of playing on Sunday or what the

77
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: deal is there. So a couple of the guys will

78
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: not based on just a timetable the link puts us in. Uh,

79
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a couple of the guys who will

80
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: have an opportunity. Now just because the timetable allows from

81
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: how the opportunity, we still have to go through the

82
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: you know, the week in the progression of where they

83
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: are physically, how they handle a ramp up period if

84
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: the doctor clears them. All that good stuff there. So

85
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: the answer is yes, I know some will have an

86
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: opportunity to play, some will not due Are you talking

87
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: about misinformation a couple of times? Is there anything you

88
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: would like to get out there and clear up? No,

89
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: I think there's some common sense to people want to

90
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: read articles to understand what does and doesn't actually happen

91
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: within a professional setting an office building. I'm not gonna

92
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: go out and rehash a lot of different things that

93
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: were out there. Jordan's this is a professional move. Um,

94
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: we made the decision as best for the team. Was

95
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: there something were you happy with the coaching or how

96
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: happy were you with the coaching in regards to technique

97
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: that your offensive line was receiving? Yeah, Jordan, I appreciate

98
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: the question. Again, I'm going to keep most of that

99
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: stuff in house in terms of how we handle things. Um,

100
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: obviously we made a move and we're all working that direction.

101
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: And have you been around an opportunity a situation kind

102
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: of like this where you had to move on from

103
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: a coach in the middle of the season, and how

104
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: would you describe what the transition is supposed to be

105
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: like in that situation. I think everything is different based

106
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: on the team and the situation that it occurs under. Yes,

107
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: I have been around moves as a player and as

108
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: a coach where there's been transitions in season. You know,

109
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing I don't understand is just

110
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: keep on moving within direction the head coach, you know,

111
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: trust is plan in place. Lombardo. Hey, Jared just kind

112
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: of wanted to piggyback off that a little bit. Um.

113
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 1: At some point you brought in Dave g Is kind

114
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: of a consultant with the offensive line. Was there something

115
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: that you saw that made you want to go in

116
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: that direction and bring in another voice. Yeah, Like, I'm

117
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 1: always looking to do anything it's going to help the

118
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: team at any point in a year. So the decision

119
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: I made was invest interest of the team. And that's

120
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: almost say about that. What does what does he bring

121
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: to the group and why were you excited to hire

122
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 1: him in particular? Yeah, he brings some experience in this league. Uh,

123
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: you know, he's done a good job. He's coach some

124
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: of the guys that are on the team already, He's

125
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: worked with a number of guys are on staff, already.

126
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: You know, there's a level of experience that carries over that.

127
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: That's great, But all that really matters now is each

128
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: one of his coaches individually and how he coaches. Now

129
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: he's with the New York Giants. So excited to have

130
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: him on staff with us moving forward and uh, you

131
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: know obviously shifting all of our folks in Cincinnati right

132
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: now at Leonard Joe, Hey, are you doing some of

133
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: some of the reporting kind of Um, it looks like

134
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: it's kind of pigeonholing you together with guys you coached

135
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,919
Speaker 1: with in New England as Judge and his former Patriots assistants, etcetera.

136
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: Is it alarming for you to see someone accusing you

137
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: and your staff of functioning in that in that way,

138
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: like in a, for lack of a better word, like

139
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 1: a clicky way. And is that is that one of

140
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: the inaccuracies you're discussing or how do you feel about

141
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: that characterization? Yeah? Look, I mean I've said the entire

142
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: time I've been here, I'm not interested in any other

143
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: program that I've ever been a part of, tered in

144
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: New York Giants
