Speaker 1: Todd. You know en update on David Harris. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: got a back conclusion East day to day to um,
Speaker 1: did he have to go for an m R time? No,
Speaker 1: it tak X rays and everything came out negative and
Speaker 1: he was okay, just sore. How about the mill in
Speaker 1: their time? He's kind of have string strain eat day
Speaker 1: to day as well. All right. You know you said
Speaker 1: last week you had Christmas shopping to do, but did
Speaker 1: you end up watching? And he said, ball yesterday? Did
Speaker 1: you see the Pittsburgh Denver game? No, we actually had
Speaker 1: the work, so we came in and broke down the
Speaker 1: film from the game and then we started working on
Speaker 1: New England. I actually missed a whole bunch of games.
Speaker 1: When he saw how the UH Denver game endured up,
Speaker 1: what was excuse me when when you saw how the
Speaker 1: Denver Pittsburgh game ended up? What was your reaction to
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh coming back in wining? Good for them? I can't
Speaker 1: you know all I can worry about as us. I
Speaker 1: can't control with pittsburgher Denver does. So we just gotta
Speaker 1: get ready for New England this week. And you know,
Speaker 1: however it plays out, it plays out. But we gotta
Speaker 1: try to win our last two games. Mhm. What are
Speaker 1: your impressions of it's been what seven or eight weeks
Speaker 1: since you based the Patriots in what ways they strike
Speaker 1: you as being different since week seven? I mean, and
Speaker 1: not much different. They're winning and they're beating everybody. They're
Speaker 1: finding different ways to do it. No well coach, team,
Speaker 1: not a good athlete and the same team we've always been.
Speaker 1: You know, they do what they do and they do
Speaker 1: it very well. H m hm. Cott, if you u
Speaker 1: win out, Uh, what do you have you thought about
Speaker 1: what your chances are then? And what do you think
Speaker 1: they are if you're able to win those last two games?
Speaker 1: I don't know. You gotta win the last two games
Speaker 1: and just hope for the best. That's all. That's all
Speaker 1: you can do. You know, you don't know. We don't
Speaker 1: know what our chances are. We don't control our own destiny.
Speaker 1: We just can control the two teams that we play against.
Speaker 1: So we're just gonna try to win those two games
Speaker 1: and make potitive steps going forward. At the football gods
Speaker 1: theme that we're worthy somehow we win these last two games.
Speaker 1: Maybe we will, maybe we won't, But they can't worry
Speaker 1: about it because you can't control it. But before the
Speaker 1: last time you guys played New England, you and you know,
Speaker 1: most of your players um were very adamant that it
Speaker 1: was just sort of just another game and that it
Speaker 1: really didn't mean a whole lot. Now it's week sixteen,
Speaker 1: and considering where you are in the season and what's
Speaker 1: writing on it, is it is it's still just another game?
Speaker 1: Or is there a different different feeling about it. It's
Speaker 1: a different feeling about the game. It's not necessarily the Patriots.
Speaker 1: It's is just about the position we're in as far
Speaker 1: as give enough other chance to make the postseason, so
Speaker 1: we gotta give ourselves to win their chance. It doesn't
Speaker 1: matter who we were playing this week, it would be
Speaker 1: an important game. It would be a big game for
Speaker 1: that reason. So the fact that it's the Patriots makes
Speaker 1: it a division rival game. But for us, you know,
Speaker 1: we gotta win regardless of who we're playing. Do you
Speaker 1: think this is the biggest game in your head coaching career?
Speaker 1: I want to say the biggest game. It's the biggest
Speaker 1: game this week because it's the only game this week.
Speaker 1: A lot of the big games that let up to
Speaker 1: this point, so you just take them all consecutive. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't think they're a big game in the important games,
Speaker 1: but it's not the biggest game of my career. Hopefully
Speaker 1: I have a long career and have some bigger ones
Speaker 1: to go over, so I don't worry about that time.
Speaker 1: What did you learn about Reddy seeing an in person
Speaker 1: and playing in person the first time? That can maybe
Speaker 1: supplement her preparation this t I mean nothing, I didn't
Speaker 1: know before. He's a great quarterback. I mean, like I said,
Speaker 1: I can't I'm not the first of the last cadson
Speaker 1: here and compliment him and give him accolades all over
Speaker 1: the places. He didn't need me to say. He's got
Speaker 1: one his own. We just got to prepare ourselves and
Speaker 1: try to make play in the fourth courter. They made
Speaker 1: more players than we did. Godd. Do you feel like
Speaker 1: you guys are a different team than the first time
Speaker 1: you met them? I mean, I hope we are always
Speaker 1: grown some you know you Actually you gotta play the
Speaker 1: game on someday to find that out. We've matured a
Speaker 1: little bit, so hopefully we got some wins behind us
Speaker 1: and we're just going to keep trying to get better.
Speaker 1: Do you think you're a better team tied and finishing
Speaker 1: and it's so how so, Oh, we've executed. We played
Speaker 1: a little more poise than we played with even though
Speaker 1: we made some mistakes last games. You know, we're learning
Speaker 1: how to finish. And I think we've learned in two
Speaker 1: games how to finish from the ones we failed with
Speaker 1: the middle of the season. And we're don't always just
Speaker 1: getting better each week. And I think the guys are
Speaker 1: trusting each other more and they just play for each
Speaker 1: other a lot more now and that's part of the
Speaker 1: growth of a new team. Help telling Davis, Uh, it
Speaker 1: looked like he had to back the other night. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you got the floorback. He's day to day right now
Speaker 1: as well. So it sounds like you've got a day
Speaker 1: to days. Do you have any guys who fall into
Speaker 1: the more serious category. Um, not at the moment. Everybody
Speaker 1: the three guys of three guys are day to day.
Speaker 1: Everybody else would be better than that. It's the Decker's knee.
Speaker 1: I know he said that night everything was fine, but uh,
Speaker 1: there's nothing that lingered kind of only woke up Monday
Speaker 1: or anything like that or Sunday of normal soreness of
Speaker 1: the late season. Were there any additional concussion evaluations for
Speaker 1: mo is He in the protocol? Or is he okay? Okay?
Speaker 1: When you went back to to wash it? Uh? In
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter went Fitzpatrick when I was really close
Speaker 1: whether he fumbled or not. You know, I went to
Speaker 1: a booth review. Now that you've seen the replay, did
Speaker 1: you think he bumbled in that spot? No? I didn't
Speaker 1: think he did. I mean, I thought the right call.
Speaker 1: His knee was down. The ball came out right after that.
Speaker 1: What does your practice schedule look like this week? With
Speaker 1: the holiday? We'll practice tomorrow. Tomorrow is like a Wednesday
Speaker 1: for us, and then Wednesday's like a Thursday. Thursday's like
Speaker 1: a Friday. Friday. They can spend Christmas at home in
Speaker 1: the morning with the families, and we're coming at noon.
Speaker 1: What did you think, Todd of Odell Beckham's day yesterday
Speaker 1: and everything that happened with him? Everybody talking about it.
Speaker 1: I actually didn't see it. I hadn't seen anything on
Speaker 1: it yet. But you know, it's not my fish to fry,
Speaker 1: so I'm just getting ready for New England and I
Speaker 1: hadn't seen any highlights to see anything, so I don't
Speaker 1: know
