1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: Julia would happen touchdown. Uh, you know, UH made a 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: great break on the ball. I thought I had it, 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: um and just in that situation, I either got to 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: take him out or just hype point it. And so yeah, 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: I judged it. I thought, well, I was just like, 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: I gotta go up and get it. Is that is 7 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: that on your mind when you're in that situation. I 8 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 1: know it's a split second thing, but you've seen penalties 9 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: cold in that situation where if you try to take 10 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: him out that maybe a penalty. Do you factor that 11 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: in and that split second or is it just make 12 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: the play in the moment. Yeah, I thought, I'm like, oh, 13 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: I just I've read it perfectly. I thought um ball 14 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: was in the air. I thought it was slightly overthrown, 15 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 1: and so I thought I had an easy just catch 16 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: an opportunity. Um, I realized you know his positioning, H 17 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: I just miss a judge And so in that situation, 18 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: I gotta make contact and go him and get it. 19 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: This team has exceeded expectations this season, but obviously facing 20 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: a team like the Eagles serves as a test. What 21 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: what is the reason I'll say about the team. Yeah, 22 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you should ask me. That's just as 23 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 1: simple as it is. Um. But we can't let us fester. Really, 24 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: we gotta go in tomorrow make corrections, and then our 25 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: morale has to say hi, because it's been high all 26 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: the year. That's what has brought close games you know, 27 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: home for us, UM. And so yeah, that's kind of 28 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: the story. That's that's the messages we got to correct this. 29 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: It sucks, you're gonna feel, you know, a little bit hurt, um, 30 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: but you gotta bounce back because we got important stuff 31 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 1: in front of us. Still, have you ever played against 32 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: a team so close last week? You got them coming 33 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: out next week? And what does that do for you 34 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: preparation wise? I can't remember if I've ever had this 35 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: close together, especially division games, UM, But yeah, I think 36 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: you know, they're fresh on your mind, and so we 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: left some stuff out there last week, UM that we 38 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: have to make opportunities on this week. And so it's 39 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: a yeah, it's a big week of prep for us. 40 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: This is this being the first time you've seen the 41 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: Eagles live? How good to they in your estimation just 42 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: watching them up closer in personally? Yeah, they're a good team. 43 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: They're pretty balanced across the board. Uh, there's opportunities from 44 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: players from a few of us early in the game. Uh, 45 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: And that's kind of been the story of you know, 46 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: the Eagles team, and so we gotta make the players 47 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: because then you know, when that happens and they get 48 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: a lead and we're we're we're stressing to make players 49 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: then at that point. And so we gotta keep offense 50 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: on the field, defensese to get off the field much sooner. 51 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: And yeah, they're they're they're good team. Julie, you played 52 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: against jail and last year prepare him some of the issues. 53 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: Seems like he's made it you step forward. Yeah, I 54 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: think they they're play calling has really stepped up, allowing him, 55 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: Uh you know, some some good reads. Um when it's 56 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: on the runing obviously he's dangerous with his legs. Um, 57 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: they have you know, good back to compliment the run game. 58 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: And then you had a guy like a j Brown, 59 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: It changes things. And so yeah, they're their team is 60 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: pretty balanced. Um, and thankfully we have another shot at them. Julie, 61 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: you said, obviously you know what's in front of you, guys, 62 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: know what's at stake next week in Washington, at least 63 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: you do. I mean, as a locker room. Is there 64 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: an emotional component to this right now that if it's 65 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: not overnight into tomorrow, where like you said last week, 66 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: there are leaders in the soccer room to kind of 67 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: make sure everybody knows what's at stake here. Yeah, I 68 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: mean this is an emotional game. Uh. You work your 69 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: ass off, you put your heart out there, and sometimes 70 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: u result isn't what you want. I mean, that's life 71 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: and it's a good depiction in the game of football. 72 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: And so for us, we prepared hard all week and 73 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: we felt very much short today. Um, but that's the 74 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: life of NFL player, that's the life of an NFL team. Uh. 75 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: So for next week, you gotta pick yourself up, fill 76 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: the tank back up, and go at it again. That's 77 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: why we're out there, Um, not only for what we 78 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: do on the field, how physical we are, all that stuff, 79 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: all the talents, all the gifts we have, but the 80 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: mental fortitude we have as well. And so that is 81 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: what you know this team is. And so that's what 82 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: you're gonna see next week. That's in September had quite 83 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: craze for d A. But when the culture he had created, 84 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, in the building, what did he say to 85 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: you after that play with Smith or if anything out Ah, 86 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: he said, well happened as I told him, I thought 87 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: I had it, And to say, okay, that's pretty much it. 88 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: I mean, Uh, I've I've said it before. The best 89 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: players have to make plays. Uh, best plays have to 90 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: play the best in that situation. Yeah, I gotta make 91 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: the play. Um that helps out our team, That changes 92 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: the things drastically. You'll know where the game could be. Um, 93 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: there's a few plays out there that you know, if 94 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: we make the play, things change. Uh. And you know, 95 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: I wish I could be perfect. Uh I misjudged it, 96 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: and uh yeah, I'm gonna be working in that practice 97 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: this next week. You think that deficit in the first 98 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: half was just too much to overcome. Uh yeah, I 99 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: mean it's tough when you're playing, you know, by a 100 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: lot of people, the best team in the league. Uh yeah, 101 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: you can't get down. You gotta keep the game close. 102 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: And so we've been doing that all year, keeping games close, 103 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: and we didn't. We let up some big plays early 104 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: on um um, all three phases of game really Uh, 105 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: to let that thing get out of hand. And so 106 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: that's what it is. We have to start much faster 107 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: next week, take a couple more do you have? I mean, 108 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: I know you guys are using injuries as an excuse, 109 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: but we know you don't have Leo, you haven't had 110 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: a Doory, you have an end savior. So this isn't 111 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: the same defense that was together, you know a month ago. Uh. 112 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: Is there any sense that you guys can can find something, 113 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: maybe get a couple of those guys back in the 114 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: stretch run and make a difference. I'm not sure, you know. 115 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: I just try to I try to be available and 116 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: be out there. But guys, the game football, it's violent, 117 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: and so we took some tough some tough breaks these 118 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: past a few weeks. Uh. And yeah, we hope you 119 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: guys can get back out there, but we can't bank 120 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: on that. You know. The mentality really is help isn't 121 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,119 Speaker 1: on its way. Like everyone who's up, everyone who's playing 122 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: needs to play because you're not gonna get bailed out. 123 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: And so that's kind of the energy and the mindset 124 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: we have is, yeah, we want some guys to come back, 125 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: and I want some guys to get healthy, um, but 126 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: you gotta do it yourself. Um. And so that's what 127 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: we're preaching right on the locker room, just the playoff 128 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: team in your mind. Yeah, without a doubt. Listen, I 129 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: haven't been in this position with four games left. I 130 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: haven't been in position to control my destiny, to kill, 131 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: to control our destiny. And we gotta get We had 132 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: that juice has remained in the building. The energy has 133 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: remained in the building, which is great. Um, you know 134 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: we're not depleted in there, and so yeah, we gotta 135 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: shake this one off. But we have four games in 136 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: front of us, and starting with this next one against Washington. 137 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: That is what you want, is when when you grew 138 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: up as a kid, you want games that are you know, 139 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: everything's on the line, and so that's how we're treating it.
