1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: Is it a situation where you know, after the way

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 1: you guys lost again, it was it almost like was

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: this a shock but not a shock? It was definitely

4
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: a shock.

5
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,319
Speaker 2: I mean obviously like people right about and all that,

6
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 2: but like in here, like as long as people are

7
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: shown up to work and you don't have to work,

8
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 2: you assume they're going to be here.

9
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: You know.

10
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: We never assumed that somebody is going to be going.

11
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 2: So it definitely was a shock to us as players.

12
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,919
Speaker 2: But you know, at the same time, like we also

13
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 2: understand the business and how it goes.

14
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 3: Is there a sense of you know, you give your

15
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 3: all every day, but still at the end of the

16
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 3: day it resulted in somebody losing their job, you feel

17
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 3: almost like a sense of regret.

18
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: Not regret, because I mean we tried, you know, it

19
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 2: wasn't like, you know, we didn't you know, go out

20
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: there and give our best effort to get the wins

21
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 2: that you know obviously would ultimately help him keep his shop.

22
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 2: We just weren't able to get that done. So you know,

23
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say regret is the word, but I mean, obviously,

24
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 2: you know, you feel and feel for his family, you know,

25
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: wish some of the best you will obviously for a while.

26
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, ready for this? And what's yeah? I think so.

27
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: I think he's in a great job of leading us

28
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 2: as an offense. And obviously, you know, he gess kind

29
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 2: of expand his role into leading the entire team with

30
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 2: defense and special teams. So you know, I think he's

31
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: ready for He does a great job of staying in

32
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: front of the guys and kind of giving the charge,

33
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: given direction over the past couple of days. And obviously

34
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: we know he's a good play caller, so you know,

35
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 2: I think he'll do a good job.

36
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: Did you notice anything different about him today? Today was

37
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: the first that you ever knew him as a head coach? Yeah?

38
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: Did he seem any different to you? Do you look

39
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: at him any different? Yeah? I mean I think he definitely.

40
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: Had a lot of energy. You know, I feel like

41
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 2: he was energized today. You know, he came in. You

42
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 2: know what you could tell he's like had a positive mindset,

43
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 2: opportunistic mindset, you know, so to speak. And you know,

44
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: I think anybody that gets a chance to get a

45
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: job and get a promotion, so to.

46
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: Speak, you know, you should be that way.

47
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 4: We don't see a lot of his personality is there

48
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 4: more passion, more fire, more energy to him than maybe

49
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 4: we've seen, you know, with him as number two.

50
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think he's yes, for sure, you know,

51
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 2: I think in a while setting or whether that be

52
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 2: in the meeting or in the sideline, I definitely think

53
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: he has some fire and passion in him. But you know,

54
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 2: at the same time, he's probably naturally a little bit

55
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: more of a calmer personality, so to speak. But you

56
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 2: know that can be helpful, you know, especially in a

57
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: high pressure game like we're in, you know, a week

58
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 2: in and week out, you know that calming presence can

59
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: definitely be beneficial.

60
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 3: Darry says a team leader there, you know you've gone

61
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 3: through this before. There are some guys who haven't. So

62
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 3: what would be your message to the guys who haven't

63
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 3: gone through this who maybe are uncertain right now?

64
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: Yeah?

65
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, the human nature thing would be,

66
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 2: you know, we have two wins or ten weeks, and

67
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: we have seven weeks left, and you know some people

68
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: would pack it in, you know, say our head coach

69
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 2: got fired whatever, But the reality of this league is

70
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 2: that you know, with change comes change, and you don't

71
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: know whether or not you will or will not be

72
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 2: a part of those changes. So it would behoove you

73
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 2: as individual to do your best overly seven weeks and

74
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 2: give your best effort and try to get some wins

75
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: on the board in order to try to keep yourself

76
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 2: in the Giant's uniform. So, as you know, that's mostly

77
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: what I'll tell guys. You know, it's like now, it's

78
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: definitely not the time to relax, and we need to

79
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 2: go out there and try to put our best be forward.

80
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 3: Are you going to have your antenna up to look

81
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 3: for guys that maybe are kind of thrown in the

82
00:02:59,000 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 3: towel prematurely.

83
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 2: No, because I don't think that'll be a problem on

84
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 2: this team. We have the right kind of guys around here,

85
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 2: and I think guys will go out there and get

86
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: their best effort. But you know, obviously, if this is

87
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: your first time going through this, you just don't know.

88
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: But I do know, you know, so you know, I

89
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: just try to share share wisdom when I can.

90
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 5: It's a little bit different for you this time, yes,

91
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 5: because the last two coaches I got fired Barre at

92
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 5: the end of the season and now he's out in

93
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 5: the middle of season. Like, how does that get processed differently?

94
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 5: I guess for you the guy's been happened in the

95
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 5: middle of the season.

96
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, in the middle of season obviously it's like somebody

97
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: gets promoted to interim, so it's it's more so shifting

98
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: to that person. But in the span of forty eight

99
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: hours as posting off season, it's like you said, you wait,

100
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: somebody gets announced, then you don't even see him to

101
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 2: OTAs like you have a lot of time to sit

102
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: and you know and get ready. But in season, you know,

103
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: we've had twenty four thirty six hours whatever to you know,

104
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: get ready for calf, but you know, are ready for him,

105
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 2: and he seems to be ready and are rad to

106
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 2: rock It?

107
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: Is it just odd coming in today? You know, the

108
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: guy who has been the head coach here for the

109
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: last three and a half years. Is he's a big

110
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: presence here. Is it odd to come in and he's gone.

111
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: He's just that's it. It's somebody else is there.

112
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course he's a head coach. You know you're

113
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: obviously gonna notice that presence being gone. But you know,

114
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: like I said, cast film role and I think he's

115
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 2: gonna do a great job and look forward to.

116
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: Working with him.

117
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 3: Have you had questions from your defensive teammates who haven't

118
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: really done that we have much. What's he like? What

119
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: can we expect?

120
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: Not a ton, but you know, I just try to

121
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 2: tell him what he's like, you know, as a guy,

122
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: and you know what to kind of expect something.

123
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 5: You guys are gonna have your third different quarterbacks start

124
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 5: this week. Just we've seen a lot of energy, looks

125
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 5: like from Jamis is up on the sidelines with I mean,

126
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 5: what is he going to bring this week?

127
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think just positive energy.

128
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,119
Speaker 2: You know, Jamis is a positive guy, but he's also

129
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: kind of an electric personality so to speak. You know,

130
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 2: a guy that you know draws people in and it

131
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 2: makes people believe. So you know, look forward to playing

132
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: one of this week.

133
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: He's a quarterback. There is that he's going to give

134
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: his guys a chance. Yeah, for sure, you know what

135
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: I mean. I think there's gonna be fifty to fifty opportunities.

136
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: He's gonna He's gonna give you a chance to tell

137
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: to any odd For sure. How does that change your

138
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: mindset when you're out there?

139
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 2: You know, everybody's alive, doesn't matter where you're running or

140
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 2: what you're running. You know, he can gun it anywhere,

141
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: and he will gun it anywhere. And as for a

142
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 2: first ever, you know, that's what you love. You know,

143
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 2: you love to have a change, so that to feel

144
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: like a guy that's going to give you a chance.

145
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 2: And you know, I think that's kind of been James's

146
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 2: whole career, is that type of mo and why he's

147
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 2: led the league in passing before, you know, So you know,

148
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 2: like I said, I think he'll do a great job.

149
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 4: So we could that energy be something, you know, considering

150
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 4: everything that's going on, could that energy that he brings

151
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 4: me something that's.

152
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: Helpful for sure?

153
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 2: Of course, you know, I mean I think I think

154
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 2: everybody's kind of going about this, you know, the best

155
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 2: way I can to justin as fast as they can.

156
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 2: But obviously there's differences in how, you know, day's versus

157
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: cap approach things.

158
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: There's small changes for us.

159
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 2: But you know, I think on top of that, you know,

160
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 2: having somebody like James that's a steady presence, a veteran presence,

161
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:40,559
Speaker 2: definitely helps.

162
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: How would you feel, Yeah, I'm good.

163
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: Probably, Yeah, I'm good.

164
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: You didn't practice it all today? We walked through today,

165
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: we walk through Yeah, okay, and you were able to

166
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: finish the game. Yeah, right, is it? You know, did

167
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: you exacerbate the hamstring or something.

168
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: Or No, I didn't get any worse. I was gaming

169
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: on now.

170
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 3: Just something you're going to have to manage. I guess

171
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 3: the rest of the year.

172
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, is what it is?

173
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 5: Do you think with Kapa Bey and the interim and

174
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 5: then I've got a new OC technically not the tight

175
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 5: ends coach got moved up. Like, is there much you

176
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 5: guys can realistically change through your system in the last

177
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 5: seven games?

178
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 4: Yeah?

179
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, not like massive changes, no, but like I said,

180
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: like small imprints.

181
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: You know, he has his imprint.

182
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 2: He's even kind of been shown today kind of in

183
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: the approach and some things we're going to get to.

184
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: But obviously also with James being a new quarterback, there's

185
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 2: also new there.

186
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: You know, he's not dark.

187
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,239
Speaker 2: You know, he's not as much a runner as Jackson,

188
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 2: you know, all that type of things, So you know

189
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: there will be small, small imprints and nuances
