1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Darius, How you doing it?

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:03,200
Speaker 2: I'm good?

3
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 3: Are you good?

4
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: Good? Welcome back? I guess you know you have never

5
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: had a bye week this late. Most people have not

6
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: had a bye week this late? How was it? And

7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: you know there's so much less in front of you

8
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: than there is behind you that that my question would be,

9
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: what is there to play for? You know, what would

10
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: you say there is to play for? Given? You know what?

11
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: A season has gone so far?

12
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 2: Same thing. You know, we was playing for the beginning

13
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,280
Speaker 2: of the year and we was you know, zero and zero.

14
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: Everything that we want to accomplish is still out there

15
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: possible for us, and we just have to do a

16
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 2: good job of taking it one week at a time,

17
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 2: one game at a time, one pone at a time,

18
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 2: and if we're able to keep stacking wins, you know,

19
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 2: at two wins before the buy, to keep stacking wins,

20
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 2: and we'll end up where we want to be.

21
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: Do you? How was it this late? You know what

22
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: I mean? I mean you know you've had it. You

23
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: know we after four weeks, five weeks, six weeks? I mean,

24
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: is it good for your body? Was it hard to

25
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: is it hard to come back? You know it's different,

26
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: isn't it.

27
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'd rather not have another one this late.

28
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 2: But you know, at the same time, though, it's kind

29
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 2: of unique and that when it is this late, you

30
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 2: come back and like you said, you've played the vast

31
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 2: majority of the season, so it's kind of like you

32
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 2: get a little reset and then I feel like it

33
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,279
Speaker 2: kind of gives you a good chance to finish strong.

34
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 2: You know, we have what five weeks left, five games left,

35
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: I think, and you know, it kind of just allows

36
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: you to even though it's later in the year and

37
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 2: you kind of get the wear on the front end,

38
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: it kind of comes right at the right time, you know,

39
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 2: because obviously if you go into the postseason, then it's

40
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 2: nice to have that little break right before.

41
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 1: Thanksterrix Cherch Schwartz, Hey, Darius, how are you? I'm good?

42
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: How are you good?

43
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 4: You know, I know you don't want to endorse, you know,

44
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 4: one or the other, but you know, are there any

45
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 4: differences between on the field or you know in the

46
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,279
Speaker 4: huddle between Tyrod Taylor and Tommy DeVito that you've noticed

47
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 4: so far?

48
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 2: Of course, Tyro has been in the league for twelve

49
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: years something like that, videos a rookie, so you know

50
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: there's there's a lot of things that Tyrod knows, you know,

51
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 2: about the game, and kind of more so, like the

52
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: way he carries himself. You know, everybody kind of has

53
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 2: to learn how to carry himself, like how you fit

54
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: into a team as you grow in this league and

55
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: as a rookie, especially a quarterback a leadership position, you know,

56
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 2: you have to kind of find your way. And I

57
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 2: feel like the Vito has done a good job of

58
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: finding his way quickly. But you know, obviously it's impossible

59
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: to close a gap of twelve years, you know, So

60
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: I think the video's done a great job. And obviously

61
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 2: Tyrod's a professional. It's why he's been this league so long.

62
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 2: And he's you know, glad to have both on our team.

63
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: Thanks thanks stairs Em Jones.

64
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 3: Hey Darius, how are you hope you had a goodbye week?

65
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm good? Are you?

66
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 3: I'm good? Thank you? How are you feelings? Did the

67
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 3: rest do you some good?

68
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: Yeah?

69
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: It does good to not get tackled, you know, keep

70
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 2: my body off the ground. Helped out, But I feel good.

71
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 3: Your joke when you say that, But like, is it

72
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 3: a difference, Like do you come back like and say, oh,

73
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: this is what it's like to have a week.

74
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: Off from someone beating up on me.

75
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you get so used to start in

76
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: your week feeling terrible. You know, it's you know, by

77
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: the time like now, like on Monday, you know, I

78
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 2: feel great and it's like, wow, this is how Mondays

79
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: are for regular people, you know. So uh yeah, it's

80
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: it's you know, it's always like that coming off of buys.

81
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 2: But you know, I'm I feel rejuvenator, refreshment.

82
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 3: Ready to go just one more if I may please.

83
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 3: And this is about a guy on a different side

84
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 3: of the ball, but as you know, I look at

85
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 3: you as someone who has the pulse of the Giants'

86
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 3: locker room. When you look at Bobby Ookarake and the

87
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: way he's fit in and it seems to me, my

88
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: non football self, that he's grown throughout the season, perhaps

89
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 3: in a leadership role. What do you see again, I know,

90
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 3: other side of the ball, I get that, but but

91
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 3: what do you see from Bobby?

92
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: I think?

93
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: I mean, first of all, he's a really good football player.

94
00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: You know.

95
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: When you first got here, you know, I kind of

96
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: said to him, you know, you're trying to get me

97
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: fired because he had he was because my loan fumble

98
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: last offseason, so I'm very happy to have his uh

99
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: ball punching prowess on my side now. But now I

100
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: think he's done a great job. He's played at a

101
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 2: really high level for us, made a lot of tackles,

102
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 2: a lot of turnovers, caused a lot of turnovers, and

103
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: I think at the end of the day's football players

104
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 2: we all can respect. Uh, you know, somebody playing at

105
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 2: a high level. You know, something in our business has coveted,

106
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: you know, as elite players. And I think you know,

107
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: once you recognize somebody, especially a teammate, somebody like Bobby

108
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 2: that's new to our team as a as an elite player,

109
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 2: you know, his influence grows, his leadership grows, and uh,

110
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 2: you know, I think he's done a great job for

111
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: us this year.

112
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 3: Thanks so much. We have time for a couple more

113
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 3: if there are any.

114
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: Art Stapleton, what's up, Darius? You doing?

115
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: I'm good?

116
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Are you good?

117
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 5: You know a little of what Paul had asked you earlier?

118
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 5: Just the timing of the buye. We I mean, whenever

119
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 5: we look at the buye a week early, you always think, Okay,

120
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 5: how's the team going to come back and reinvent themselves,

121
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 5: you know, whether it's personnel changes or you know, schematically strategically, how.

122
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: Will they reinvent themselves?

123
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 5: But with five games left, like you said, being so

124
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 5: late in the season, we're in December, what do you

125
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,239
Speaker 5: anticipate this team looking like? I mean, do you see

126
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 5: a chance for it to kind of reinvigorate with some

127
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 5: changes or you know, is it just really a continuation

128
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 5: of what you guys had before the buye?

129
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: Yeah?

130
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 2: Man, I think for us specifically as a team, I

131
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 2: think it's given us a good chance. You know, guys

132
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: we have that are banged up or whatever. I think

133
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: it came right on time, you know, being able to

134
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: have this buy and going into a Monday night game.

135
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 2: You know, he kind of buys you another day on

136
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 2: top of that. So, you know, I think it for

137
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 2: our team specifically where we're at, I think it helped everybody,

138
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 2: you know, physically and mentally. You kind of get a

139
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 2: chance to reset mentally, but also give your body a

140
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 2: break and be able to heal from you know, some

141
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 2: of the things that just come along with the football season.

142
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 6: Thanks last one at Valentine and you're on mute, Sorry

143
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 6: about that.

144
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 7: I just wanted to ask you about another one of

145
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 7: the guys in your room, uh, Jalen Hyatt, guy that

146
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 7: got so much excitement, got people so excited, you know,

147
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 7: through the summer. It took a while, and then you know,

148
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 7: last week kind of a real breakout game for him.

149
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 7: What do you see from him in terms of development

150
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 7: and maybe what do you expect from him down the stretch.

151
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 2: And I think I think what he showed last week

152
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 2: is who he is. He's explosive player. You know, he

153
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 2: can make big, big plays for our team. Obviously coming

154
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 2: out of college, we all saw the you know kind

155
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 2: of uh seem like just go ball after post after

156
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 2: big play at Tennessee. And I mean, I think he

157
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 2: has in his arsenal. But he also know Kylie, what

158
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 2: what he went viral for. He can play receiver, you know,

159
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: he can run route, he can catch the ball in

160
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 2: the intermedia game. And I think as as we go,

161
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: you know, I think we'll have the chance to show

162
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: those things. And I think he did a great job

163
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: before and he's been doing a great job all year.

164
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 2: You know, It's just that's just a nature of being

165
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 2: a receiver. You know, sometimes people see you go for

166
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty and then they see you go

167
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 2: for fifty and they're like, well, you know what happened.

168
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 2: And this every game is different. Teams played us, different

169
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 2: defend us different every week, so you know, the opportunities

170
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 2: come and go sometimes. But I think as long as

171
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 2: he gets the chance to make plays, he'll make them
