1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Another quarterback change. Even though back to Locke, what did 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: you see I guess from Boyle on Sunday. 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 2: Boyle building nice jobs, stepping in minimal reps. It's a 4 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 2: it's a you know, tip of the cap to him 5 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: for just being prepared, being ready. And then I mean 6 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 2: he's was meticulous with his notes, with his studying, his prep, 7 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 2: and I thought he did a nice job out there. 8 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 3: This is two years in a row with the carousel 9 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 3: the quarterbacks and the injuries and whatnot. What is that 10 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 3: like as somebody who coaches the position and obviously an 11 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 3: offense to navigate through that. 12 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's part I think it's part of the business. 13 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 2: It's part of football. Really happens in every position, whether 14 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 2: it's offensive line, whether it's receiver. You know, those things happen. 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 2: So he just got to be really prepared and making 16 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: sure we're staying on top of not just the starters, 17 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 2: but we're prepping the back I was prepping those guys 18 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 2: that are kind of two, three, four down the line. 19 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: It's it's, you know, part of our development program with 20 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 2: getting young players that are maybe practice squad guys. So 21 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 2: getting those guys up to dating up the speed. So 22 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: that's really just part of being a coach. And they happen. 23 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: It's unfortunate. You obviously don't want those type of things 24 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: to happen, but when they do, you got to work through. 25 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 3: It as a coach. I had a player in this 26 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 3: league for a while. Have you seen two years in 27 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 3: a row like this? 28 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: It's I mean, it's probably it's probably first for me 29 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: going through that, like as a coach. As a player, 30 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: probably not to this extent, but having some injuries for sure, 31 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 2: you've been around it. But yeah, it's probably different for 32 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: as a coach. 33 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: About yourself as a coach having. 34 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 2: To go through that, Yeah, just just maintaining flexibility and 35 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 2: being able to adjust, you know, on the fly, and 36 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 2: and and come up with solutions. I think, you know 37 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: when things like this, when anytime adversity hits, you want 38 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 2: to be, you know, a problem solver. You know, now 39 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: a guy just complains about stuff. So that's that's the 40 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: kind of approach that I take, is trying to be 41 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: a problem solver and put the best put the best 42 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: of our players in the best position to be successful. 43 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: Or your impressions in Michael Pennix during the pre draft process. 44 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 2: He's an impressive kid. He's you know, he has all 45 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 2: the pass ability and he's a lot more fact and 46 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: you think, you know, I think he had those those 47 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 2: injuries in his past, but I think he went out 48 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: and ran a four four, you know, in this pro day, 49 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: So you know, we like them, like them coming out. 50 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 2: He's the talents and player. 51 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: What was your role in that process, and obviously Ridor 52 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: Davis was kind of leading it from the coaching gable, 53 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: what was your role in the whole QB probuss? 54 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm right there. I'm right there with 55 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 2: him as far as evaluating, you know, going on those strips, 56 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,839 Speaker 2: visiting the guys that we saw in person, whether it's 57 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 2: QB's or other position groups. You know, I'm in that. 58 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 2: I'm in that role. 59 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: What did you make following up on that that that 60 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: quarterback class as a whole in the way they've since 61 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: performed in the league to start their seasons? 62 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 2: Say again, you've. 63 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: Made as the of that group as a whole and 64 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: how they've performed in the NFL to start their rookie career. 65 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I'll be honest, I haven't like studied 66 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 2: them every single guy unless we end up playing them 67 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 2: obviously there's some there's certain guys that are are having 68 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: a lot of success. You know, we've seen Jayden and 69 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 2: all those guys, so I certainly have seen it and 70 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 2: heard about it, but I haven't studied them. You look 71 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 2: at the Falcons, what are the major concerns? Oh, that's okay, 72 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. If you're finishing there, I got you. 73 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 2: So the you know, I think they do a really 74 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 2: good job of getting football out. Those safeties do a 75 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 2: hell of a job punching at the football. I think 76 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: they have multiplicity in their scheme, whether it's shown too high, 77 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,239 Speaker 2: getting a one high. They like the disguise up front. 78 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: They got a lot a lot of really talented players 79 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 2: and trying to you know, make it really difficult in 80 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 2: the run game. So you know, we got a bunch 81 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: of challenges across the board that you know, we're just 82 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 2: gonna have to really put the other good plan. And 83 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: I think we have a really good plan and we're 84 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 2: gonna go out there in practice today and all. 85 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 3: The adversity of you guys have faced, you know, last year, 86 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: but certainly this year is even worse now with with 87 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 3: regard to Daves, what have you noticed about him? And 88 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: the way he's handled this in front of the team, 89 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 3: in front of you guys, the assistance and whatnot. What 90 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 3: are some of the things you've taken away. 91 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Data's handled it really well. And you know, 92 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: I think the personality, the personality the football team is. 93 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: You know what your head coach isn't He's been studying, 94 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: he's been confident, he's been ploys and these things, whether 95 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: it's adversity hits or the successful things that we've had done. 96 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: Whenever that hits, he's kind of stayed the same guy 97 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: and trying to build as much as we can. And 98 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 2: he's done a great job taking some of these young 99 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 2: players under his wing and making sure they're performing well. 100 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: They're in a good spot mentally, and you're seeing that. 101 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 2: You're seeing the production for some of those young guys. 102 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: You assistant head coach, not just the offensive coordinator. So 103 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: I ask from a loot from a storyline standpoint, one 104 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: of the things to this game is Giants are trying 105 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: to avoid becoming the first Giants team ever to lose ten. 106 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: In a row. It's tied for the longest loser. Is 107 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: that anything you can use in your position to like 108 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 3: rally guys a source of pride anything like that, or 109 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 3: is that like we can't even mention that to guys 110 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 3: because it's negativity. 111 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: I don't really buy into the storyline part of it. 112 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 2: But I know that our guys are are are working 113 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 2: their tail off, you know, they're trying to get do 114 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: the things right. You know, coaches were detailing all the 115 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 2: work that needs to be done. And I think, you know, 116 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: when you just focus on this week, because that's really 117 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: all that matters. That's those are the things that we're 118 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 2: talking about, the details, the execution, and then we get today. 119 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: We got an opportunity to practice our third down and 120 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 2: red zone stuff together. So a big time situation of football, 121 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 2: and so that's really all our focus is. None of 122 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 2: that storylines and stuff like that, and that's all my 123 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: focuses do. I guess you know you have you guys 124 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 2: haven't enjoyed a win. And you know it's been since 125 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: since the Seattle right and stuff to flight home, so 126 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 2: you know, what's it like to go that long. 127 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 3: I'm sure it's the first time. 128 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, well maybe Northwestern. Yeah, you know, I think you 129 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: try to enjoy the process, you know, with the guys 130 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 2: in the meeting, rooms on game day, making the adjustments 131 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: and and you know the results will come, you know, 132 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 2: and so you just got to you got to believe 133 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: that part of it. I think we do. And it's 134 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: been tough, you know, those things have been tough. That's 135 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 2: in the past. What can we control today? And that's 136 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: our mentality, that's our mindset. Uh, that's how we're gonna 137 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 2: approach practice.
