1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,200
Speaker 1: You, of all people could understand what's going through Nick

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,480
Speaker 1: foles head. I mean, at the beginning of this year,

3
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: he might are not envisioned this opportunity and all of

4
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 1: a sudden its presented itself. And so I think, you know,

5
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: the NFL, you never know what may happen, what opportunity

6
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: may come. And obviously Nick's done a great job of

7
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: taking advantage of the opportunity that was present presented to him.

8
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: Obviously played a great game last week. And knowing Nick,

9
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: you know, I've known him, gosh, probably ten eleven years.

10
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: You know, he was he was in a Michigan state

11
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: with me for a year. Um, you know, it doesn't

12
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: shock me. He was always very well prepared, could throw

13
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: the football really well, smart kid, um, And I've you know,

14
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: seen him over the years in the NFL. And you know,

15
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 1: I mean when year he threw twenty seven touchdowns and

16
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: two interceptions. So you know, he's done a great job

17
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: with you know, you know, stepping in and filling in

18
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: for Carson and obviously you know, capped it off with

19
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 1: a really good game to put his team in Super Bowl.

20
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: How hard is that to come in when a starter

21
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: goes down, when you're in a backup position and not

22
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: miss a beat and in that room got how much

23
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: respect do you have for what he able to do

24
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: with that offense last week? I think the last game,

25
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, A lot of respect for him. I mean,

26
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 1: you know, obviously that wasn't you know, the first game

27
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 1: he had stepped in, so I think he'd been able

28
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: to build up to that point. But you know, and

29
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: I haven't really have to see much of, you know,

30
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: the other stuff, because I'm really focused on Philadelphia's defense.

31
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: But obviously when after our game last week, you go

32
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: home and watch their game and see what he's doing,

33
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 1: and he played a tremendous game, So you know, I

34
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: haven't been in that spot, and being in that spot,

35
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of respect for a guy who's

36
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: able to step in and kind of fill those shoes,

37
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: because you know, Carson was having a great year, right,

38
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: what's this week like? You know, just preparing for the

39
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: biggest game of a lot of these guys lives any different,

40
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: And if so, what is doing? And I think you know,

41
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: you go and you keep doing what's gotten in here.

42
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: You know, you stay with your routine, you stay with

43
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: your preparation. Obviously it's always nice to have an extra week. Um,

44
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: you know, you don't have to cram as much, but

45
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: you go through and I think the biggest thing for

46
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: us is, you know, don't take this week for granted.

47
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: Prepare like we're gonna play this Sunday, and really get

48
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: a full week, have good practicing, and that way when

49
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: you get out to Minneapolis, Um, you're not trying to

50
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: play catch up because there's not gonna be a lot

51
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: of time. There's a lot of stuff that you got

52
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: to do, obligations and things like that. So you know,

53
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: you prepare this week like like you're playing this Sunday,

54
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: and then when you get out to Minneapolis, it's like

55
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: a bonus, you know, three days of practice and you

56
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,959
Speaker 1: get ready to go. Definitely get the heavy lifting done here.

57
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's necessarily heavy lifting, it's just

58
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, you got your four extra days of practice.

59
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 1: But I think you could easily load yourself into saying no,

60
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna you know, I don't have to play until

61
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: two weeks. Like I'm not gonna study the same way.

62
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna watch as much film. I think, you know,

63
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: the coaches did a good job of really emphasizing you

64
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: got to prepare like you're playing this Sunday. Don't let

65
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: these days go to waste, all right, Thanks guys,
