Speaker 1: Lance Meadow, Bob Popacar Banks with you as we are

11
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: recapping big win for the Giants twenty seven seventeen over

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Is the Giants finally snapped that eight game

13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: losing streak to Philadelphia. They had also lost twelve of

14
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 1: thirteen twenty one of twenty five, and the Giants get

15
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: their first back to back divisional wins since two thousand sixteen,

16
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: so they now sit at three and seven. The Eagles

17
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: are three five and one bolt teams each with three victories.

18
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: A lot to unravel as we move forward here on

19
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: Mercedes Bands Giants Extra Point and Bob two straight weeks

20
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: now Giants number one have protected the football no turnovers.

21
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: Number two the defense getting critical stops. It was the

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: pair of turnover on downs that the Giants force today

23
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: compared to the interceptions last week against Washington, and that

24
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: helped essentially seal the deal. Well, Lant's, Uh, you dig

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: a little bit deeper into this. There were there was

26
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: a couple of drives obviously where Philadelphia in the third quarter.

27
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: Of the two drives that they put together, the eighty

28
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: four yard drive and the seventy five yard drive combined,

29
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: it only took thirteen plays for the two drives. But

30
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: for the most part of this game, Carl, it's what

31
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: the Giants did on first and second down, because Philadelphia

32
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: wound up in this football game oh for nine on

33
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: third downs. Uh. And on those oh for nine, six

34
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: of the nine were nine or more yards, which means

35
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: they had to Philadelphia in long yarded situations. And I

36
00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: thought the Giants early down defense and tackling was very good,

37
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: with the exception of those two drives in the third

38
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: quarter where Philadelphia gashed him with big place. Well, yeah,

39
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: and you never got the feeling just based on how

40
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: the Giants were playing that this momentum was gonna swing

41
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: to Philadelphia. Even on some of their explosive plays, the

42
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: Giants seemed to be more composed in this game than

43
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: ever before. Like answering when the Eagles come in and

44
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: make a you know, get a score, the Giants come

45
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: back composed on offense and stay with what they were doing.

46
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: So I think the work they do on first and

47
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: second down, certainly, uh was a big contributor to this victory.

48
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: Because you get you hauld a team to oh for

49
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: third down, you should win. And more good news for

50
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: the Giants, Matt Prater of the Lions has just made

51
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: a fifty nine yard field goal and the Lions have

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: defeated the Washington football team thirty seven, so the Giants

53
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: remain a win ahead of Washington. Of course, they've got

54
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: the season sweep of Washington, But that Carl and the

55
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: fact that Daniel Jones played a clean game twenty one

56
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: no touchdowns but no interceptions. He ran the ball well,

57
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: and Wayne Gollman's numbers do not jump off the chart

58
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 1: at you eighteen carries for fifty three and he took

59
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: a couple of blasts at the end of the game.

60
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: But really, when Lamuse in the game at left guard

61
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: and Zeitler's in at right guard. Uh. And this offensive

62
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: line combination, this is the best running we've seen of

63
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: the Giants in a long time. They ran for a

64
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty one yards in this game. Yeah. And

65
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: here's the thing, you say, Wayne Gohlman's numbers don't jump

66
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: off the screen, but his his yards were very important yards, Bob.

67
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: I mean, he kept the change moving and they're not goudy,

68
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: but you know, key touchdown dive over the top, key

69
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: first downs, he's getting, key blocks he gets. But he

70
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: is just a different type of energy for the run game.

71
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: And remember Gallman's touchdown run. The leaping, diving two yard

72
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: touchdown run came on a fourth and one at the two,

73
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: which gave the Giants a fourteen to three lead, and

74
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: Carl outside of the Leonard Williams silly penalty, the Giants

75
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: had seven penalties for sixty four yards, two of which

76
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: were delayed games intentional correct and uh. And then the

77
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: other one, the one on Darnay Holmes was just was

78
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: a terrible call. And even the one on Andrew Thomas

79
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: the hold. Uh, it should have been offsetting penalties on

80
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: that play. But I thought for the most part, they

81
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: played a clean game. And again special teams plays a

82
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: factor in this game as well. Yeah, and I'll tell

83
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: you the big change in field position when the Giants

84
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: defense was holding enforcing punts when the Eagles took the

85
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: ball down in the red zone with their heels to

86
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: the goal line, Giants forcing a punt and Drew broll

87
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: pepper Is getting a big kickoff return across midfield was

88
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: just money for them. Set up a short field which

89
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: Gone brought up kicking a field goal which gave him

90
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: a seven point lead Lens. Yeah, and also limiting Philadelphia

91
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,799
Speaker 1: in terms of its starting field position. Just the piggyback

92
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 1: off of Carl's point was huge too. Critical plays by

93
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: the special teams all the way around. We will step

94
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: beside when we come back. Will continue to recap the

95
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: giants seventeen victory over the Eagles later on. We'll hear

96
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: from Joe Judge get some player reaction as well. As

97
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: the Giants snapped the eight game losing streak to the Eagles,

98
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 1: improved to three and seven on the season. We'll be

99
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: back right after this slones out of the gun handoff,

100
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: Gallman runs right into Jones keeps and he runs left

101
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: to the ten five and he's in for the touchdown

102
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: thirty four yards for Daniel Jones. He thanked me out again.

103
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: Jones goes around the left hand and this time he

104
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: doesn't fall down and it's a Giant touchdown. That was

105
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: the play of the game. Brought to you by Pepsi,

106
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,480

109
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: Eagles seven seventeen. Daniel Jones had the eighty yard run

110
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: in Week seven against the Eagles, couldn't finish. He gets

111
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 1: the job done early to put the Giants on the

112
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: board very quickly. They took it early seven nothing lead.

113
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: They tacked on two more rushing touchdowns thanks to Wayne Goldman,

114
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: and that brings us to the Giants Power Report brought

Speaker 1: ran the ball thirty six times for a hundred fifty

00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: one yards, Daniel Jones leading the way with nine for

119
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: sixty four plus the touchdown. You heard Wayne Goldman eighteen

120
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: for fifty three and two scores. Alfred Morris chipped in

121
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: with eight for thirty four. It adds up to a

122
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 1: ten point victory for the Giants. Will open up the

123
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: phone lines at eight seven seven three three seven sixty

124
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: six sixty six. Let's take a glance and check in

125
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: with Dwight in Georgia. Dwight, welcome aboard. What do you

126
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: offer us? Lance? How you doing? Do all right? Dwight?

127
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: What's on your mind? Oh? Man, what a win? That's

128
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 1: how you play six minutes of football even the best thing,

129
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: no turnovers. I thought Daniel Jones played the phenomenal game. Um.

130
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: I thought the defense stepped up when they did. I

131
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: thought the offense played very well. I don't like that

132
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: that soft zone defense about and stand what they're trying

133
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: to do when they do that. But sixty minutes of

134
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: football and no turnovers. That was perfect. Loved it, every

135
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: minute of it. You know that that soft zone defense.

136
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: I noticed something different this week than last week. Though.

137
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: Last week when they went into their soft zone, the

138
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: players that the offense was getting ten yards a clip.

139
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: This time they were getting seven six, which meant that

140
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: your defense was playing the sticks and coming up and

141
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: making the tackle, which meant that clock was ticking. But

142
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: every time they would give up those ten yards against

143
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: the Washington team, it just you know, you just get

144
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: first downs and you don't eat up clock. So I

145
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: noticed that they did tighten that up a little bit,

146
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: making teams have to use more than one down to

147
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: get the first down. Right, Thank you, Hi, do I

148
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: appreciate the phone call, Thanks so much for checking in.

149
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: Let's hear from Scott and Teterborough. Scott, what do you

150
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: got for us? Yeah, great point, Carl. Especially the Eagles.

151
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: Whenever the Giants played the Eagles, it seems like whatever

152
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: the Eagles need to do in the second half, they

153
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: do it, and they do it without taking much time

154
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: off the clock. So exactly what you're saying, at least

155
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: you let them go down the field and take some

156
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: clock where they seem to do it. Seems to be

157
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: a perfect storm in these Giant Eagles games where the

158
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: Eagles tend to they get the big giant drop on

159
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: third down, which there was one today there is Layton,

160
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 1: or they'll get the big penalty, which the Giants started

161
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: to go down that rabbit hole, but but then they

162
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: reached down and they got the no field goal, which

163
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: as we look outside now that wind is getting even stronger.

164
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: Good things. They got that game over when they did

165
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: because with the weather coming in tonight. So I'm looking

166
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: Bob Lands and carlsty Endings now and it might certainly

167
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: be like three and two division record. It may be

168
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: a race to five wins and maybe six wins amongst

169
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: the teams that Redskins just got beat on. A can't

170
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: get out of their own way. And this this is

171
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: about this is just about progress. And I you know,

172
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: I I said early on that you just have to

173
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: throw the expectations out there winding watch and chart the

174
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: growth of this team. And to your point, you can

175
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: find you you start to chart the growth and you

176
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 1: can start to see things coming together in a very

177
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: bad division. Now fans will be allowed to dream a

178
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: little bit about what could be, but just manage expectations

179
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: and just see what happens. Because this is the team.

180
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: If you if you notice their personality, they just focused

181
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: from one week to the next, each game plan it's

182
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: its own game plan, and they don't talk a lot

183
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: about what ifs or what happened you know in the past.

184
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: Asks They just worry about putting the results on the

185
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: field and seeing what happens. Absolutely and like Lance and

186
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: going mbab Away says, you don't know. You don't get

187
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: too crazy, what's what's on your schedule because you don't

188
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: know what those teams are gonna be when you play.

189
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: You don't know how Cleveland's injured list is gonna be,

190
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: or with Cincinnati in two weeks. So what you do

191
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: is you enjoy Thanksgiving. You're all tied up in the

192
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: wind column and uh yeah, I mean you've got to

193
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: love You know what I loved about today When they

194
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: got into field goal range at the thirty. Can know

195
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: who can kick from seventy yards? It teams? He beat

196
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: the Giants of one. They didn't get crazy and try

197
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: on third and send a third and fifteen to get

198
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: behind schedule and try a big play and get sacked

199
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: out of field goal range. They got those three points

200
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: just to keep just to keep momentum going and always

201
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: be a score and a score and a half up

202
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: on Philadelphia. Hey guys listening, it was great talking to me.

203
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: You have a great Thanksgiving. Bob bought up a very

204
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: important point uh on Philadelphia's last score and they went

205
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 1: for two. And I thought, and I said to Bob,

206
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 1: I thought that changed the way, Uh, Doug Peterson had

207
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: to call the game. And it felt like he was

208
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: chasing points because, as Bob said, if you just kicked

209
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: the field I mean kicked the extra point, you're within

210
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: a field goal of tying the game. You missed the

211
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: extra point. Now you put yourself within a touchdown to

212
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: try to win a football game. And I just you

213
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: just felt that they were chasing points the whole game.

214
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: And you know, and I think that changed the tenor

215
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 1: of things too. Well, yeah, because it made it seventeen.

216
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: It could have been then the Giants after the after

217
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: the Peppers return and get a field goal to go

218
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: up seven. Um. But you know, Philadelphia had a couple

219
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 1: of drives there late where you know, then instead of

220
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: going for them fourth down, they could have gone on three.

221
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: They could have gone for a field goal because it

222
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 1: was time remaining and they did have the win at

223
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: their back. I thought it was a curious decision at

224
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: that point, uh, because if you get to there, you know,

225
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: that makes it one nineteen. Um. You know, listen, Doug

226
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: Peterson goes for two a lot. But I thought that

227
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: was kind of crazy at that point. Well, and then

228
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: it just leads you to um analytics and ego over

229
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: what the facts are on the ground. And if you

230
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: have if you're over third downs and you're facing a defense,

231
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: that's that's pretty stout. Every once in a while you

232
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: gotta say, you know what, the analytics says this, but

233
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: my common football gut tells me I need to keep

234
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: this thing within a field goal because if I'm missing,

235
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: I'm chasing points. So sometimes, you know, analytics don't have

236
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: a heartbeat. You gotta look out on the field and say,

237
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: is my guy, can my guys execute this? Or am

238
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: I just doing this because the stat sheet or the

239
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 1: formula says do it this way? Lands, Well, it's interesting

240
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: to bring that up. The only thing I was gonna add, guys,

241
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: is I wonder if the philosophy of the wind and

242
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: not necessarily having confidence in Jake Elliott played a role

243
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: in it, because you know, he has been shaky this season.

244
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: I know he made all his extra points, but there's

245
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: been some field goal opportunities where he hasn't delivered. Maybe

246
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: that was part of the rationale as to why they

247
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: kept the offense on the field going for two and

248
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 1: to Bob's point, that has been a part of the

249
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: track record for Doug Peterson, but it did not work today.

250
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,840

270
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: Judge has to say. How's everyone doing today? This meeting

271
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: is being reve Eagles. UM, it's a world coached team.

272
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: It's very explosive team. Uh, they're a tough team to play,

273
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: you know, playing a team like that within the span

274
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: of just a few weeks apart, there's a lot of

275
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: things that you prepare for, and there's a lot of

276
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: adjustments that they make almost like an extent at halftime.

277
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: They definitely do a good job of that. They did

278
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: a good job in today's game making adjustments keeping us

279
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: on our toes. I thought both were all three coordinators

280
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: made good adjustments on our sidelines to keep us in it,

281
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: keeping moving through it. Um. Probably the way the guy's

282
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: faul when it was gonna sixty minute game against Philadelphia,

283
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: so we came out here. That was the answers we

284
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: had to finish the game, you know it in a halftime,

285
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: a very similar situation what it was last time we're

286
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: down in Philly. Want to make sure we had a

287
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: different result and came out as a team that was

288
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: where the empsis was to finish the game. So that

289
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: being said, open up any questions you may have our

290
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: Stephenson the record, Hey Joe, uh you have You guys

291
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 1: had moments Tony where it seemed like maybe if you

292
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: played on your heels, maybe you would have given the

293
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: Eagles a little bit of an opportunity, especially on offense

294
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: that that shot that Daniel took to Slayton. Can you

295
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: just talk about the confidence that you guys had and

296
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: not allowing to kind of sit back and kind of

297
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: let them do maybe what they did to you the

298
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: first time. Yeah, I mean this is a team that

299
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: if you think you're gonna watch the clock tick down

300
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: and he's gonna run out in your favor, you're gonna

301
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: be really wrong Against the Eagles. They can score points

302
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: at any point. Uh. Look, obviously in the first game

303
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: they scored a lot down the late stretch of the game,

304
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: in the last five minutes. We couldn't sit back today

305
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: and in any way, shape or form think that we

306
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: hadn't scored enough points. The empsis was to keep scoring,

307
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: to keep playing, play the entire game on through. It's

308
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: always ambsis, But with these guys, we knew it had

309
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: to be you know, very driven towards getting points on

310
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: as main drives as we can. Um you know, Daniel

311
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: made a lot of big time throws. Say, we had

312
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: a lot of receivers make big time catches, you know,

313
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: contested catches in traffic. We've got a lot of guys

314
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: making tough plays right now down the field. And we're

315
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: always coaching and playing with an aggressive mentality. So in

316
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: terms of having a lead, the leader really doesn't mean

317
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: anything to us, to be honest with you, you know,

318
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: other than just knowing how some other team may play

319
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: something situationally. But we know it's gonna be a sixty

320
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: minute game, so we're gonna stay aggrestissot the entire thing.

321
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: Daniel made some big time throws today, Tom Rock Neuesday, Joe.

322
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: Have you seen the updated standings in the division yet?

323
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: I have not, Tom, And I'll tell everyone right now

324
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: it's irrelevant, you know, on thing that matters if we

325
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: keep improving as a team and go one and every week,

326
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: so you know, the overall standings, we're not gonna look

327
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: at those. We're not gonna focus on those. That's not

328
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: an empass emphasis of our organization. Um, we've got to

329
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 1: keep improving as a team to give ourselves a chance

330
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: to be the program we want to be. And then

331
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: just to sort of pigureback out of arts question, that

332
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: drive after they cut it to three in the third quarter,

333
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: where two big strikes going down the field, I'm important

334
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: was that just to the team's mentality? Yeah, I think

335
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 1: it's important to have execution like that going down the

336
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: field and having some big plays, you know, back to

337
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: back down there and gets some position that finished the

338
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: drive off. You know, with this team, we knew there

339
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 1: were score points continuously. We had to be able to

340
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: answer drives. Uh. Look, we came out in the second half.

341
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: I don't think we started as fast we wanted to.

342
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: They did a good job on their part, but we

343
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: we responded the right way. You know, as a team,

344
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: we responded the right way, and I'm probably the way

345
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 1: the players played it on through join runa ESPN. Hey

346
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: Joe um preaching you know, improvement and that that's kind

347
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: of what you want from your team. What's different from

348
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: your team now? The team and the team that you

349
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: had on the field today, that from the first time

350
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: you played them, compared to now. I think we've improved

351
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: a number of areas. Uh, you know, third down, two minutes.

352
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 1: These have been big ances for us throughout the season.

353
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 1: I see that improvement from our team. I think the

354
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: more time our players continually spending our systems with Pat,

355
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: Jason and t Mac, the more the more they understand,

356
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: the more that we can build on what we can do,

357
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 1: you know, within the game plan within multiples, and that

358
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: makes the adjustments on the sideline a lot easier because

359
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 1: you can teach the players the same we're gonna play

360
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: this defense now, it's just like playing X, y Z

361
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: the other defense, and they can correlate that in what

362
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: the new assignment is. Um. Look, I see the same

363
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,679
Speaker 1: fighting our teams that we've had the entire year. These

364
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: guys haven't blinked, they haven't wavered. You know, we keep

365
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,239
Speaker 1: the EMPSS on approving. That's really the most important thing

366
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: for us. I've seen a lot of that continuously throughout

367
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: the year. Uh, you know, there's really no different this week.

368
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: I think these guys had a heck of week of

369
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: practice and the way that they practice is the way

370
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: it really reflects and how we play on Sundays. You know,

371
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: we're out there for two rainy days today. Probably the

372
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: only disappointed thing about today was that it didn't rain. Um,

373
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 1: you know, and the players are probably looking at me like,

374
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 1: you know, come on, man, but you know we're gonna

375
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: be outside regardless. So Ky Leonard Daily News, Joe, what

376
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: do you learn from Daniel Jones in a game like

377
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,239
Speaker 1: this where there's so much riding on it for for

378
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: you guys in your season and he plays, He passes

379
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 1: so accurately, He makes prudent decisions. He seemed decisive, you know,

380
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 1: just seemed to put it all together and a game

381
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: that you guys really needed. What what does that tell

382
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: you about him? I didn't learn anything new about Daniel today.

383
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: You know, I've known that the entire time working with

384
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: and I think we all have internally. And that's why

385
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 1: the team has so much confidence in Daniel, and that's

386
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: why he is our quarterback. You know, we're gonna play

387
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: aggressive with Daniel, and he's done a heck of a

388
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,919
Speaker 1: job of making the plays when we need it and

389
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: you know, making better decisions going throughout the season. This

390
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: guy is a young player who's developing. He's learning a

391
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: lot every week. You can see his improvement week to week. UM,

392
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes there's you know, sometimes there's something you

393
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: want to get off the tape, and he understands that

394
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: we correct that in practice work at hard UM. But

395
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: there's a lot of games he's played where maybe there's

396
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: a blemish that takes away from the really good football

397
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: he's played. UM, But Daniel continues to really be an

398
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: approving player. He's a tough dude. He's a really tough dude,

399
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: mentally tough and physically tough. And that you know that

400
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: really spreads throughout our entire team. When he steps in

401
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: the huddle, there's ten guys looking at him, knowing that

402
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: he's going to be the one to give the answer

403
00:19:54,640 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: to what the problem may be on the fields. And UM,

404
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,400
Speaker 1: could could you tell in the building at all that, UM,

405
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: people are really anxious to beat the Eagles. You know,

406
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 1: you you haven't inherited this whole streak. You know you

407
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: only had one previous for him. Could you tell that

408
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: guys in this organization was sick of losing to the Eagles.

409
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: I think people are just you know, sick of losing

410
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 1: any game. And you know, whoever we play on a

411
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: given Sunday, we want to win that game. They all hurt,

412
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: you know, the same if you don't come out with

413
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: the results you want. We pour a lot into this,

414
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: you know, profession as players and coaches on a weekly basis,

415
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: so we all want always work to get the you know,

416
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: results we want. But it's a division game, so obviously

417
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: it's important to go out there and win for a

418
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 1: lot of reasons. Yeah, this is something I want to

419
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: make sure that you know, we couldn't come here today

420
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: and leave any meat on the bone. We had to

421
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: make sure we finished as a team and get the

422
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: results we wanted. Matt Lombardo fansied, Hey, you know, I'm

423
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: kind of along in those lines. Last week, you guys

424
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: get the two interceptions late to seal the win. Today

425
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: you get two big stops, you get off the field. Um,

426
00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: do you just talk about the growth of your defense

427
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: over the whole year and kind of how that's translated

428
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. Yeah, I think, you know,

429
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: all the defensive coaches done a tremendous job and really

430
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: bringing these guys along, and we talk all the time

431
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: about really the improvement week the week and continually seeing that.

432
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: To me, it's when the fundamentals marry up with the

433
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,919
Speaker 1: scheme on the field, and fundamentals are ten times more

434
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: important than the scheme, you know. I see these guys

435
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 1: being able to go ahead and understand a bigger picture

436
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: concept and push forward with that. So I see kind

437
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: of a lot of guys who are younger players, you know,

438
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 1: really move on. See you one second, Hey, whoever's got

439
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: that turn that off? Just turn that off? Sorry, I

440
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 1: guess um. So I see the players improving across the board,

441
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 1: and you know, Pat's really kind of evolved what he's calling,

442
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: you know, based on what we have to do within

443
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: the game and who we have available. Thanks Zach Rosen

444
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: Black and j dot Com. Hey, Joen, what what can

445
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 1: you say about Wayne Gallman and the kind of the

446
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: season he's having. Seems like, especially the last few weeks,

447
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: he's running with like a purpose that we haven't even

448
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: seen from him in the past. And you know, you

449
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 1: Obviouslyn like all the talk about him coming into this year,

450
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 1: it had him produced and stuff like that, but it

451
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 1: seems like he's really turned a corner. Like, what can

452
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: you say about Wayne and the way he's progressed through

453
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: the year. I think Wayne is a tough dude, and

454
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:04,920
Speaker 1: I think that's what's showing up and how he plays.

455
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: He's running the ball tough. It's got a lot of

456
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: mental toughness to him. Um, you know, we asked him

457
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: to do a lot of things and he's responding really well.

458
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 1: This isn't you know, maybe the scheme he's played in

459
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 1: through his entire career, but he's really done a good

460
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,239
Speaker 1: job of learning and adapting to it, being a very

461
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: productive player. Force does a lot of things. Man, He's

462
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: improved a lot, you know, throughout the way. You know,

463
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: there's a lot of little things we have to emphasize

464
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: a long way with all of our players, you know,

465
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 1: but I've seen him fundamentally really improved in ball security

466
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 1: and open field running, you know, in the goal line

467
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 1: type runs and make sure we get that thing across

468
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: the goal line, carrying with our pads, not reaching the

469
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: ball out. So I'm very pleased to how Wayne's playing.

470
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: I know the teams gets a real big spark when

471
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: he's in there and really gets us a lot of yards.

472
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: But same with Alfred, saying with Dion, same with DeVante.

473
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: When he's healthy, you know, we look forward to using

474
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: all those guys on a weekly basis, we'll take two more.

475
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: Valentine Otis and Valentine has been Nation coach. I just

476
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you also about the improvement not just

477
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: from Wayne, but in the running game overall. Um, you know,

478
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 1: another big game. You know, some runs from Daniels, some

479
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 1: runs from from everybody. Just for you, what's been what's

480
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,199
Speaker 1: been the key to that? Yeah, I think it all

481
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: starts up front with the line, and these guys have

482
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: been doing a really good job of blocking, you know,

483
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: run block and pass block. We've improved every week. You know,

484
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: I've been kind of telling that guy's in every press

485
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 1: conference that we've had. You guys keep asking about, you know,

486
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: what do we see or what's gonna see a lot

487
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: of improving across the board, and you talk about the

488
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: run game. I think we've really found our identity in

489
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 1: terms of what we are as a team that doesn't

490
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: pigeonhole us that we can't do things outside of what

491
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: we've already ran. We'll keep expanding on that and growing

492
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,679
Speaker 1: as a team within the playbook, within the game plans,

493
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 1: but I think it all starts up front. We've got

494
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 1: runners that run the ball hard. You know, the passing

495
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: game helps keep them honest, you know, Daniel Be Donna

496
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: pull the ball and run the ball, you know at

497
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 1: the back gate, you know, kind of keeps them honest

498
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: with some of the fast flow they can have to

499
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: the ball with the running back. But to me, it

500
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: all starts up from the offensive line. Those guys have

501
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: done a really good job of just coming off the ball,

502
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 1: playing a physical style of football and finishing blocks. Last

503
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: one here Otis Lewis then CBS. Alright, coach, I know

504
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: you said that it's insignificant as far as the standings go,

505
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 1: but how good does it feel to see your team

506
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: play two weeks in a row after having so many

507
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: games come down to the wire and not be able

508
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: to seal the deal but the last two weeks been

509
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: able to seal the deal and also your quarterback hasn't

510
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: turned the football over for the second week in the row. Yeah,

511
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: I'm just happier players. You know, all the hard work

512
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: they put in that they can see some results for it,

513
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: and that's really what they work for. So I'm happy

514
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: they can come away, you know, tonight and going into

515
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: a bye week and have a good taste in their mouth.

516
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:29,919
Speaker 1: Now that being said, We're gonna to get back to

517
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: work on Tuesday and Wednesday and take some steps forward

518
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: going in his final six games. Uh, it'll be a

519
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: quick turnaround, but we gotta let them have some time

520
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: to get their bodies right, their minds right. But at

521
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: the same time, we gotta get better as a football

522
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 1: team this week. So look, I'm pleased for the players. Uh,

523
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: they're hard works paying off, you know, the entire year.

524
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 1: I think they can see that on the tape. Um,

525
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 1: so you know, the record stuff that will take care

526
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: of itself. We just gotta keep worrying about improving as

527
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 1: a football team and moving forward on daily basis. And

528
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: Daniel as far as the turnovers, yeah, I think Daniels

529
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: the guy who's continually growing within his professionist position. Um,

530
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: we have a lot of confidence in them. You know. Look,

531
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: it takes eleven people on the field plus a coach

532
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: to make a call and position coaches to coach it

533
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: correctly throughout the week to put us in a position

534
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: and really have good ball Scury, So it's everybody involved.

535
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: There's never one person. So we've been saying throughout the

536
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: year it's gotta be everyone's gotta coach better. And play better.

537
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 1: That still holds true today. We all have to coach

538
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: better and play better down the stretch. The teams are

539
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: gonna be more competitive and better down the stretch because

540
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: there's more tape to watch of us and everyone's had

541
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 1: more time to work together as a team and get

542
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: in sync to what their own identity is as well.

543
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,199
Speaker 1: So you know, in terms of you know, turnovers, we

544
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: never want to turn the ball over. We want to

545
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: eliminate penalties, want to make sure it on mental airs

546
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 1: in the game, and how we play and those three

547
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: things right there will give you a chance to win

548
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,679
Speaker 1: if you just don't screw it up. All right, thank you,

549
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: Thanks all right. So that was head coach Joe Judge

Speaker 1: listening to Giants Football and the Fan w f A

Speaker 1: n and w f A n f M, New York.

564
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Mercedes Ben's Giants Extra Point Lands Metal.

565
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: Bob Popa Carl Banks with you as we are recapping

566
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: the giants seventeen victory over the Eagles. Right before the break,

567
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 1: we heard from head coach Joe Judge got his thoughts

568
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: on the game, and one of the things he talked

569
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 1: about at the tal end of that press conference was

570
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: the fact that the Giants have done a good job

571
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: protecting the football over the last two weeks, no turnovers

572
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 1: and mentioned it was a team effort. And Bob, that

573
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: really brings us to the offensive line because we focused

574
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: on the rushing attack and of course Daniel Jones decision making,

575
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: but I think we have to at least talk about

576
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: the progress that unit has made. That's a big reason

577
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: why they've run for over a hundred yards in five

578
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: straight games, and even though the Eagles have a strong

579
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,239
Speaker 1: pass rush. He never really felt as if they were

580
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: a disruptive force that Eagles front seven throughout the course

581
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: of this game. Yeah, I mean Andrew Thomas got called

582
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: on jones second touchdown run for a hold. But other

583
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: than that, I mean they played, They played a good game.

584
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 1: Parrot comes in there, he does a nice job. Um.

585
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 1: You know, listen, they've been running the ball a lot

586
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: more effectively since Shane Lemieux has been at first guard.

587
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: Now Zeitler got hurt, so they had to put Hernandez

588
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 1: in and then move Lemieux over. But this team's got

589
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: to run the football, Carl. I mean, it's plain and

590
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: simple when they run it. And they're not one dimensional

591
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: because they don't have the guys to be one dissal.

592
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: But it also because they come into every game with

593
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: a a plan. And you can hear the coach and

594
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: his presser saying, you guys are kind of getting an

595
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: idea what our identity is. Well, that identity serves them

596
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,640
Speaker 1: well in one area of the football off field that's

597
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: in the red zone because and I said it during

598
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 1: our broadcast, some teams that are past happy and they

599
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: spread the field once this field starts to shrink. Your

600
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: options are limited. With the Giants, they can do whatever

601
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: they do from you know, midfield all the way into

602
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: the end zone because they had personnel in play calls

603
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 1: that involved running the football. And then look, I mean

604
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 1: Shepherd was targeted six times, six catches forty seven yards.

605
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: Slayton was targeted seven times, five catches um for ninety

606
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: three yards. He had the big forty yard or take

607
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: two four. I mean the Giants won this game and

608
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: put twenty seven points up on the board in a

609
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 1: game in which Evan Ingram really wasn't a factor. I

610
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: mean targeted three times. He had two catches for fifteen yards.

611
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: Because you have a running game, and it creates versatility

612
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: in what you can do offensively and allows the team

613
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: to finish in the red zone most important, which is

614
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: what the two of your highlighted Giants going two for

615
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 1: three in the red zone now nine of eleven over

616
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: the last few games. That has been a big part

617
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: of the turnaround. Guys always appreciate the time and the inside,

618
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: enjoy the buy and we'll speak to in two weeks. Yeah,

619
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: that's one thing that zone. Yes, I'm curious because uh, well,

620
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: I guess I guess the penalty put the wall to

621
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,719
Speaker 1: twenty three. Okay, I just answered my own question as

622
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: I looked at the game book. No questions asked, thank you.

623
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: There we go, no problem. Hey, we neatly close up

624
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: shop with Bob Pop and Carl Banks. As the Giants

625
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: are victorious seventeen over the Eagles. We will step aside.

626
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: As we move forward, we'll get more player reaction. We'll

627
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: also get to your phone calls at eight seven seven

628
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: three three seven sixties six sixty six as the Giants

629
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: now we're three and seven on the season. We'll be

630
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: back right after this. You're listening to Mercedes Benz Giants

631
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: Extra Point on the w f A N Giants Radio

632
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: network driven by the Hess Toy Truck. We welcome you

633
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: back to Mercedes Ben's Giants Extra Point. As the Giants

634
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: took care of business against the Eagles seventeen at MetLife Stadium,

635
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: snapping their eight game losing streak to the Eagles and

636
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: most important, tying the Eagles in the wind column. But Philadelphia,

637
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: of course, still in first place at three five and one.

638
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: Let's name our player of the game, and there are

639
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: certainly a number of candidates. The player of the game

640
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: brought to you by the members and contractors of Local

641
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: eight Operating Engineers. He like five building our future, and

642
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna go with somebody on the defensive side of

643
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: the ball for the second straight week, because just as

644
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: this man helped seal the deal against Washington last week

645
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: with one of the two game ending interceptions, Jabrill Peppers

646
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: did a little bit of everything in this game. Seven

647
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: tackles led the way for the Giants, six solo. He

648
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: also had half a sack, two tackles for a loss,

649
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: had a quarterback hitt. Remember he had the twenty yard

650
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: punt return to help the Giants get an extra field

651
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: goal to make it a two possession game, and all

652
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: of that added up to help the Giants get that

653
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: ten point victory and knock off the Philadelphia Eagles for

654
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: the first time since two thousand six. Team, and I

655
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 1: will bring in Jeff Eagles as we move along here

656
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: on Mercedes Ben's Giants extra point and interests. A true

657
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 1: team effort, Jeff, in terms of all three facets special

658
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 1: teams with what Riley Dixon did in terms of not

659
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: giving gifts and field positioning to the Eagles. You look

660
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: at the defense forcing a pair of turnover on downs

661
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: and then the mix of the rushing attack and Daniel

662
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: Jones decision making. You can argue that all three facets

663
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: put their stamp on this week on this victory today,

664
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: no question, no question. I actually thought you were gonna

665
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 1: go a player to game with Dania Jones who letting

666
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: the passing in rushing. But you know that's okay, that's

667
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: where I would have picked. We'll do a makeup call

668
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the season, yes, But

669
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: to your point, complimentary football. That's what this is um

670
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: amazing to me when you look at this team from

671
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: start to finish, to where we started this season to

672
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: where we're at now. We're talking about two games in

673
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: a row now with no turnovers. Where we're talking up

674
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: before you know, in the first part of the season

675
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: there two and three turn was a game. So obviously

676
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: there it's clicking. The guys understand what happens when you

677
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 1: turn the football over. But that's not easy. That's not

678
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: easy not to do, and I think that it comes

679
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: with good decision making out of your quarterback. Um, certainly

680
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 1: when you have no turnovers. I mentioned this in the

681
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: pregame shows that you play with confidence. The team plays

682
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 1: with the confidence, and you have the ability to think

683
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: you can go out and do things that normally you

684
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: don't think you can. So Um, I think that the

685
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: Giants are playing with so much emotion and so much

686
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 1: uh confidence going into this game today and coming out

687
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: of it, it's a great time. Now, buys are always good,

688
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: but sometimes buys lance can be bad because all of

689
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: a sudden, you win in two games in a row,

690
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: what type of a team you're going to see in

691
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 1: two weeks from now? So you just kind of I

692
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 1: don't think we're gonna see much of a difference. I

693
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: think this team is locked and load and ready to go. Well,

694
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: it's a matter of maintaining momentum, which is essentially what

695
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: you're hitting on Jeff now interestingly, but it's funny because

696
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: you know that Judge, Joe Judge is not believing that momentum.

697
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: He believes, he does not believe in those and you

698
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: see the way that he coaches Lance. He comes into

699
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: it's every every game is different. Uh. You can see

700
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: that this is how this team plays. So they're not

701
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: gonna use that that crutches the momentum thing. They're just

702
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: gonna use it as another team that they got to

703
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 1: play on the schedule. Um, I believe in momentum. I

704
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 1: think that that. I think momentum coming off of that

705
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: Washington game, coming into a game like this last week,

706
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: I mean this week playing the Eagles, I think the

707
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: momentum was there because if the turnovers that they didn't

708
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: do last week, this gave them a lot of confidence

709
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: that they can come and beat this team, which, by

710
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: the way, you and I both know they should have

711
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: won this game last time. Well. I also think the

712
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: semblance of the rushing attack two over the last few

713
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: weeks has helped that cause too, because that certainly has

714
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: been a difference maker room. We're gonna get more into

715
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: the rushing attack, but first, let's pause ten seconds or

716
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 1: station identification. Here on the w f A N Giants

717
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: Radio network, Dustin Johnson wins the Masters for the first time,

718
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: his second major title overall. Listen to Boomer in Jail

719
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 1: tomorrow morning from six to ten w f A and

720
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: w f A and FM New York. And we were

721
00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: talking about momentum right before that. And the reason I

722
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: bring up the rushing attack because you talked about Jeff

723
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. Okay, well you

724
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: get the two turnovers, the defense getting a feel for

725
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: one another and help them close out the game. On

726
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball, the ability now to

727
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: run the ball effectively, specifically in the red zone, and

728
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: you notice that has been a big difference maker in

729
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: terms of helping them complete drives and get into the usage.

730
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: Huge because at one point in the season the Giants

731
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: were two for ten in the red zone. Um, and

732
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 1: we were talking about that's just you know that they're

733
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: a killings heal the Giants that you know, even if

734
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: they were able to get to take takeaways and and

735
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 1: go down there and you know, you're big crutches. You know,

736
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: if you get take aways, you're gonna score points off it.

737
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 1: But they would get down into the red zone and

738
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: they couldn't score. Well, now, I think I thought, I

739
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,760
Speaker 1: heard you say they're nine of eleven the last eleven trips.

740
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: So you know what what comes from that? How how

741
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: can that be such a big change. Well, there's a

742
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: couple of things, and the number one is that you

743
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: are able to run the football, which which is which?

744
00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: Now you're able to open up your playbook and run

745
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: different things. This team did an exceptional job on first

746
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: and second down. Today in the first half, they were

747
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 1: left on third downs. They were less than three yards

748
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 1: on all of their third downs. Now do you have

749
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: third downs in the red zone too, So you've gotta

750
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 1: have perfectly designed plays and you've got to execute those plays.

751
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: These are things that we're talking about that we weren't

752
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: talking about a month ago, a month and a half ago,

753
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 1: about execution, big plays and every at facets of the game,

754
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: big plays in kicking game, big plays in the defensive game, sacks, takeaways.

755
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,399
Speaker 1: It wasn't any today, but they had five last week.

756
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: We're talking about players making plays to win games and

757
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: the progression of this team. That's all we've talked about

758
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: all season. We had to have it come together, and

759
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 1: now this team is starting to come together and they're

760
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: getting those big plays from the players. Man. That's why

761
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: they also have won two straight divisional games seventeen win

762
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: over the Eagles. Giants now three and seven on the season.

763
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: We'll step beside. When we come back, we'll be hearing

764
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 1: from Daniel Jones, get his perspective on a big win

765
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 1: for Big Blue at home. We'll be back right after this.

766
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Mercedes Bends Giants extra point. Lance Meado,

778
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: attack here. Daniel, You've now run for over a hundred

779
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 1: yards as a team in five straight games. You obviously

780
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: have played an integral role in that. What has that

781
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 1: done for the overall offense, specifically in the productivity in

782
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: the red zone? Uh? Yeah, I think that's been you know,

783
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,439
Speaker 1: important for us, and and um, you know, the guys

784
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: up front are doing an incredible job open up holes

785
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: for uh, for the backs and and uh, you know,

786
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: I certainly benefit from that as well. So, um, you know,

787
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: those guys have done done a great job. You know.

788
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,399
Speaker 1: You see Wayne, Wayne is doing a great job hitting

789
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: holes and and and making big runs. Offers come in

790
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 1: and and uh you know, done the same. So um,

791
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: you know, I think, you know a lot of credit

792
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,359
Speaker 1: goes to uh, the guys up front and how they're

793
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 1: how they're blocking and open up holes for for all

794
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 1: of us to run through. Daniel, Yeah, congratulations on the

795
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: game today. You know, when you come into these games,

796
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: you understand that the NFC e st as a whole,

797
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: it continues to turn to football over all these football teams.

798
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 1: I know this has been a point of emphasis for

799
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,240
Speaker 1: you and for your team. You go down to Washington

800
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: last week and no turnovers. You turn around your work

801
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 1: this week and you come into another division game and

802
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over again. What are some of

803
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: the point of emphasis that you've made personally and what

804
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 1: the what has the team been doing lately to all

805
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: of a sudden just rid this causing this problem with

806
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 1: these turnovers? Yeah, you know, I think it's something that

807
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 1: will continue to to focus on, continue to to stress

808
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 1: and make sure we're uh, you know, we're doing, we're improving.

809
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 1: You know, I think that's a challenge every time you

810
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 1: you come out, you know, every time you play is

811
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: to you know, take care of the ball. And it's

812
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: you know, plays a huge huge role in uh field

813
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: position and and uh, you know, gives a big advantage

814
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: to um, you know, whoever is not able, whoever does

815
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 1: it all over. So you know, I think you know,

816
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,359
Speaker 1: we're we're executing, we're uh taking advantage of opportunities out

817
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 1: of there and then uh, you know, not pressing, not

818
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 1: forcing things when um, you know, when they're not there.

819
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: You know, I think that's kind of um, the approach

820
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: we've taken. And and uh you know we've got to

821
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 1: continue to uh continue to work on that. Well, Daniel,

822
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,760
Speaker 1: speaking of taking what the defense gives you and walking

823
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: that fine line of being aggressive and looking for perhaps

824
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 1: the easy way to move the chains. Probably a huge

825
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: turning point in this game was that forty yard completion

826
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 1: that you had to Darius Slayton on a second and ten,

827
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: which ultimately set up the field goal that needed a

828
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: two possession game. What did you see on that play

829
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 1: and how critical was that to get yourselves in Philadelphia

830
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,879
Speaker 1: Eagles territory. Yeah, that was that was a big play

831
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: for us, and and a great call there uh by

832
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: coach Garrett. You know, they were expecting us to to

833
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 1: run the ball there and try to keep it on

834
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: the ground to eat the clock out. And and you

835
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: know we had an opportunity there with there is to

836
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: to go down the field and make a play. And uh,

837
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: you know, he made an incredible catch there. Uh, you know,

838
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 1: making a play for us, and um, you know that

839
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: that was a big, big play in the game. And

840
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,919
Speaker 1: I think, um, you know, I think Coach Garretts there's

841
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: a lot of credit and and um you know, obviously

842
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: they were expecting to run and an opportunity for us

843
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,360
Speaker 1: to to make a play down the field. So um,

844
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: you know, a good execution there and and a great

845
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: play by Darius Daniel. I know you spent a lot

846
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: of time with Jason Garrett, um, both in the classroom

847
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 1: at the facility and on the sidelines with your little

848
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: iPads or whatever they're called. Talk to me a little

849
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: bit about the end game. Adjust It's that you've been

850
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 1: able to make the last couple of weeks to uh,

851
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 1: you know, to improve and both their passing efficiency and

852
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: you're running. Um, are these are these things that are

853
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 1: being made on the sidelines? Are they being made at

854
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: the twelve minutes that you're in at halftime? Enlighten us

855
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: a little bit on what's going on over there on

856
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: the sideline. Yeah, you know, I think that's a you know,

857
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: something we're working through throughout the game. And uh, you know,

858
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: you prepare all week, uh expecting the defense to play

859
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 1: a certain way, and you know, sometimes you get a

860
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,399
Speaker 1: lot of that, sometimes you don't. Sometimes there's a little

861
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: wrinkle'll they'll throw at you. So, um, you know, these

862
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: past couple of weeks are obviously teams that we know well,

863
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 1: teams that we've played before and and you know, played recently. So, uh,

864
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 1: we had a good deal for him coming in and

865
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: you know a lot of stuff we had prepared and

866
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 1: practiced all week, and um, you know, we continue to

867
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 1: to work that stuff in and and uh, you know,

868
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,359
Speaker 1: continue to look at what they were doing to us,

869
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 1: and and you know how we can get certain things

870
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: called in certain situations. So um, you know that's kind

871
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: of the process is based all what we're seeing, what

872
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: we're what we've prepared for, what we've what we've practiced,

873
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: and then um, you know, finding good times to call it.

874
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,919
Speaker 1: He is Daniel Jones, starting quarterback for the Giants, helping

875
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: the team top the Eagles twenty seven seventeen. Daniel, congrats

876
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 1: on the win again, rest up over the course of

877
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 1: the bye weekend. Look forward to seeing you back out

878
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,919
Speaker 1: on action against the Bengals following the bye. Thanks again, yeah,

879
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: thanks for having our pleasure. Daniel Jones with us here

880
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: as the Giants get the job done at home at

881
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium. And one of the things that, of course

882
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 1: he was talking about was Jason Garrett's play calling. Jeff,

883
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: and that's something that we've been also discussing week in

884
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 1: and week out. It seems as if week by week,

885
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 1: with more comfort under their belts, that he's able to

886
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 1: expand the playbook a little bit, Jason Garant in terms

887
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: of what he's able to call. And then, of course,

888
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,919
Speaker 1: now with a semblance of a rushing attack, you're now

889
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: keeping the defense on its toes in terms of you

890
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: have to respect the run as opposed to thinking the

891
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: Giants are only gonna make up for things with their arms. Well,

892
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: I think this the Eagles defense had to respect the

893
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 1: run option today, UM out of Daniel Jones. I think

894
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,600
Speaker 1: you know that that's a that's an integral play of

895
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: this offense because if you I mean, Daniel Jones has

896
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 1: got some speed, and if you get him outside and

897
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 1: he's got an open area to run, he's gonna he's

898
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,800
Speaker 1: gonna do some damage. So I think you saw a

899
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: lot of that in that Eagles defense being a little

900
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 1: bit hesitant um to really just pin their ears back

901
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 1: and and try to defend the run game because they

902
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 1: have that option of the r p O or the

903
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 1: read option, whatever you wanna call it. I think that

904
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,359
Speaker 1: when you talk about Jason Garrett and the and the

905
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: progression up to this point in the season, we talked

906
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 1: a lot about this offense being designed around see Kwon Barkley,

907
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden he goes out of the lineup.

908
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: So now you are dealing with different personnel. Look at

909
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 1: look at Alfred Morris. He was not here at the

910
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,400
Speaker 1: beginning of your The Giants didn't know about, really know

911
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: this staff didn't really know much about Wayne Gallman. I

912
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 1: mean the staffs previous they did. But man, he has

913
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 1: come back and shown this staff and this team that

914
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,240
Speaker 1: he can play. So I think the personnel that Jason

915
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: Garrett is getting to understand and learn the ins and

916
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,040
Speaker 1: outs and what are the good things that they do

917
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: and one of the bad things they do. The rotation

918
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,879
Speaker 1: of that offensive line is something that's that's now kind

919
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 1: of kicking in. So it's all about, you know, timing

920
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 1: and how things get better. And you look at that

921
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: team from the from the Dolphins that Patrick ram coached

922
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 1: at last year. Look what happened to that team last

923
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: year in the second half of the season. They played

924
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: very well. I see the same thing happening with the Giants. Yeah,

925
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: a lot of similarities to your point, Jeff, between both

926
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: of the teams in terms of Miami being a tough

927
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 1: out last season. It may have not shown up in

928
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: terms of the standings, but they were a very complex

929
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 1: team that you had to solve down the stretch, especially

930
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 1: after they had lost some personnel along the way, and

931
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: real and real quickly. You know, if you look at

932
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: this Giants team and you look at the games they've

933
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 1: lost and how they lost those games, what's critical to

934
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: understand here is that the Giants are are they did

935
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: something about that the last couple of weeks they they

936
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,479
Speaker 1: have is so called learn how to win, right, well,

937
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: learning how to win is executing and and doing things

938
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 1: you're supposed to um and putting game potting plays together,

939
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: and and that's what this team is doing. If this

940
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 1: team was if they could do this five weeks ago,

941
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: four weeks ago, this, the division would be there already,

942
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,959
Speaker 1: or it would be somebody's at this point. You figure

943
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: it in terms of how the first half of the

944
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 1: season is just about everybody in the NFC East, well,

945
