1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: Boy. All right, well that was quite a game. Obviously. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,560 Speaker 1: You know these games can go down to the to 3 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,240 Speaker 1: the very last play, and it did. UM. I think 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: you know, they did a really good job of moving 5 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 1: the ball against us in the first half. UM. We 6 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: came back in the second half and did a good 7 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 1: job of stopping them and getting them the punt, and 8 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: then we turned around and got a couple of quick scores. 9 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: We put this thing back into bounce. UM. I think 10 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: the key to the drill was some of the situational 11 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: football where we were much better, much better on third 12 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,279 Speaker 1: down We were six for thirteen and then we were 13 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: three for four in the red zone. UM. And you know, 14 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: we faced a pretty good defense. This is for third 15 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: really good defense that we've faced. Certainly, when Orval Tree 16 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: goes out with the hamstring Barkley with the ankle, you know, 17 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: you lose two of your better players. The guys that 18 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: stepped into the terrific job. And I felt like we 19 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: got a really real positive contributions from the special teams. 20 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: The punt coverage was just outstanding, and we were They 21 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: forced us to punt a few times more and we 22 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: would have liked UM. And then certainly you know, we 23 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: block a kick and they missed a couple, and that 24 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,320 Speaker 1: can that can be the difference. Um, probably, you know, 25 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: probably the story of the game will be the rookie quarterback. 26 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: I thought Daniel Jones, Uh, I don't know, you guys 27 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: tell me. I thought he did a pretty good job 28 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: first time out. UM, and I think as you go along, 29 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: he'll continue to get better. There were mistakes within there. 30 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: You know, there were a couple of times when we 31 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: we took a couple of sacks, you know, the fumbles 32 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: and some of the some of that loose stuff. We 33 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: can work on that. There's drills for that, But the 34 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: stuff that he did in the game, UM, there's not 35 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: drills for that. So we believed in him from the 36 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: day we drafted him, and um, first time out, he 37 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: didn't disappoint. So that being said, I'll take your questions 38 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: in the second half defensively, you guys, well, I just 39 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: think it was the same as last week. You know, 40 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: they Buffalo had us on our heels, and then we 41 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: came out in the second half and and and um 42 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: found a way to get some stops. The difference in 43 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: that game is we didn't kick it in the gear 44 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: on offense. You know, today it was a better second 45 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: half all around. You know, we came out and got 46 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: some explosive plays on offense, we got the stops on defense, 47 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: and at the very bitter end there we were fortunately 48 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,679 Speaker 1: they missed the kick, and so you know, that's the 49 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: way this team is gonna be. We're gonna have to 50 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: fight for it. And it was good to get our 51 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,399 Speaker 1: first victory on the road. Good to get the first 52 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: victory with the with the young quarterback. And so now 53 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: we'll just go back, reassess and get ready to play Redskins. 54 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: Touchdown one evolved? How did that evolve? What made it? 55 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: Which one? The first one? No? I mean it was 56 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: a fourth down and they played a big zone and 57 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: covered us all down and then he took off and 58 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,959 Speaker 1: ran for a touchdown. Stuff. You know that he's done. 59 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: It's part of what he does. Um. He helped convert 60 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: a couple of third downs because of his legs. Um. 61 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: You can start to see and as you get to 62 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: appreciate him as a player, there's plenty of things he 63 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: needs to do better. But as you get to there's 64 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: certain things that I knew about this kid when we 65 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: drafted him. He was tough, he was competitive, and in 66 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: my opinion, he's a winner. Now the rest of it 67 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: is just pure quarterback stuff, and because of those first 68 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: three things, that's why he's gonna have a chance moving 69 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: forward down sure's a situation. Well, you know, I've been 70 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: in games where it's come down to that and kicks 71 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: have been made or missed. I was part of the 72 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: Minneapolis miracle, So you know, you just gotta hang in 73 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: there all the way to the end of it. And um, 74 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: you know, the emotions are you know, you know, you 75 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: get bummed out for a second, but then you get 76 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: right back into it because they have to execute a kick. 77 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: And fortunately for us, they didn't. You see it right away? 78 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: Did you know right away? Matt? My from my angle, no, 79 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: I can't. From my angle, I can never tell whether 80 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: they're good or not. And then there were so many 81 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: there were so much cheering going on, and we had 82 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: so many of the giants faithful here. It almost sounded like, 83 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: from my perspective, like, you know, they made it, But 84 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: unfortunately I was wrong. It was just a nine ball, 85 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: you know, they just took a shot. And and we've 86 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: been matching up Generes all all game and he made 87 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: a good throw and a good catch. That's all with 88 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: with Daniel that no Bill is seen many time and 89 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: time a games throughout this game. And disability to move 90 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: around stretching. I think it's it's value added to a quarterback. 91 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: You know. You see in a game, there's a lot 92 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: of plays that are less than perfect. You know, in 93 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: a former life, you know, guys like Michael Vick and 94 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: all the mobile quarterbacks that have been around. You know, 95 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: as you move around and you get outside the pocket, 96 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: things sometimes start to clear up for big place, you know, 97 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 1: And I think he moved a few times because pass 98 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: rushes are too good. And if they know you're throwing 99 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: the ball um and you break contain and you've got 100 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 1: a good set of legs on you, you know, then 101 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: you have a chance to make a play. When he 102 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: comes to the sideline after a couple of negative plays, 103 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: do you have to calm him down? You have to 104 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: not a bit. As part of his charm, he's he's 105 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: mature beyond all of our ears. Trust me, we've all 106 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: been together long enough. I know that for a fact. 107 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: You said he has changed. What do you see is 108 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: at eight understore that validy you're thinking that you're feeling 109 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: up with this wing. I don't know. It was his 110 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: first outing. Um. He had a significant impact on helping 111 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: us win the game. And now we're gonna see we're 112 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: looking for consistency. So we're looking for him to not 113 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 1: not do not be heroic, but just just to be 114 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: the best Daniel Jones he can be. So now he's 115 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: going to go through the process of trying to get 116 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: his body back yum and get ready to play Washington 117 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: and so, and we'll help guide him through it. We're 118 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: very confident though, by what we've seen. He keeps passing 119 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: the tests in our mind. And until this, until this afternoon, 120 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: he hadn't played in a regular season NFL game, And 121 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: I don't in my I mean, maybe maybe I'm seeing 122 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: it wrong, but he didn't disappoint. No, it's an ankle 123 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: of some sort. I think we'll get further you know, 124 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,679 Speaker 1: we'll get further information on that tomorrow. Anything about that, Pat, 125 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: it's a sprain. I don't know how you guys working 126 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:51,559 Speaker 1: around the slacker? What is this second half your team? Well, 127 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: it says that we're we're becoming we're becoming a better 128 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: team because we were able to go out and close 129 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: the gap and finish it off the right way. And 130 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: I think that's how you learn. You know you We 131 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: can keep talking about it, but until you go out 132 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: and do it and confirm it for yourselves and for ourselves. Um, 133 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: it's just talking. Listen, we won one football game. There's 134 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: there's a lot for everybody to write about. But now 135 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: it's a matter of us going back, reascessful, react physically, 136 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: put a roster together and get ready to play Washington. 137 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: About the kid a quarterback mc daniel when he doesn't 138 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: have sap one for that second half, It doesn't excuse me, 139 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: It doesn't affects playing one bit. Well, I can appreciate 140 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: the question. By the way, you guys asked me a 141 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: lot of hard questions. Don't let anybody ever say you 142 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: don't all right, um Um. What it says about him 143 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: is he believes in himself and he believes in all 144 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: the players that are out there. And that's that's just 145 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: part of his charm. And I'm sorry, And I've been 146 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: around a lot out of smart people. I'd rather be 147 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: around the tough people, and he's tough. Almost differences change 148 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: when you don't have sake. Um, I don't know. I mean, 149 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: we were in a situation without sake one where were 150 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: we were behind, So then you know, you're chucking a 151 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: little more than you maybe would like. We're still trying 152 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: to mix in the run. But they did it. They 153 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: didn't you know, they were rushing five most of the 154 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: time and they did a pretty good job against the runner. 155 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: So we had to throw
