You're wanting to 16 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: visit the statue, you know, maybe one day after I 17 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: retire or something like that. But I have no plans 18 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: to anytime soon. And they were going to do it, 19 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: what would you react, that's up to them. I didn't 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: really care, Honestly, I just really didn't care. Um, you know, 21 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: what they did that was that was you know, the 22 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: people involved with that so um, but it's definitely an honor, 23 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: you know, to to have something like that represent you know, 24 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: what we did you know back then that I think 25 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: that yes, I think I don't really know. Yes, maybe 26 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: the guys that were last years team and even before that, 27 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 1: the guys who under what a couple of coaching changes. 28 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: Now that you've kind of gotten into this transition everything, 29 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: what was the Were they very very open minded about 30 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: what you were trying to sell? The guys who have 31 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: been on the team for four or five years, even 32 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: they were, Yeah, did they make it a little bit 33 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: easier for you to me in here and kind of 34 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: you know, do that healing processes? You know. And they 35 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: were the ones that I leaned on, you know, to 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: to really kind of get a sense and a feel 37 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: for where they were mentally, Um, you know, coming coming 38 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: off the last couple of seasons, and UM, I just 39 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: wanted to reassure them that we were going to work 40 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 1: hard to try to get things turned around. And you know, 41 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: and and um, they bought into that. And you know, 42 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: you're starting to see I think the fruits of their 43 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: labor by by the way they practice and obviously by 44 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: the way they're playing guys like Josh and Shady Cam 45 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: and Cook exactly. We did the map, we were looking 46 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: at the depth chart before you got here. I think 47 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: it's like four guys on each side of the ball 48 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: for Philly, we're there before you left, and a lot 49 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: of guys in the trenches. What sort of advantage does 50 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: that give you as you're scouting that and having known 51 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: guys like Kelsey, having known guys like Graham and the 52 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: rest of them, all the defenses. I mean, it's it's 53 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: good to know kind of who they are, how how 54 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: they think, how they play. You know, Um, you've got 55 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: all those insights that way. It's much like you know, 56 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: Press a couple of weeks ago with the Colts obviously, 57 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: and um, you know, but at the same time, it's 58 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: a different scheme, so they're in a different different system now. 59 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: Um you know, obviously the offensive line. You know, it's 60 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: the same with Jeff Stoutlin, so that we're seeing the 61 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: same things there, you know, in the run game. But um, 62 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: you know it having familiarity is nice, But at the 63 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: same time, you know, they're trying to execute their plan 64 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: just like we're trying to execute ours and and um, 65 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: you know focus on that night book players, Jalen Hurts. 66 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: He really seems to be coming into his own this season. 67 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: You know. Um, I've obviously from afar, you know, watching 68 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: him and seeing his progress. I it's everything that I 69 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: think back then we saw when when Eagles drafted him, 70 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, is coming, is coming to the forefront. This 71 00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: guy extremely hard worker, he's dedicated, he's a proven winner. 72 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: You know, he's everything has been thrown at him, adversity wise, 73 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: and he's overcome it, you know, Um, and you're seeing it. 74 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: You're seeing it in the way he plays, in the 75 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: way the guys rally around him and support him, and 76 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: and uh, it's just uh, you know, I think for 77 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: him being in you know again, having stability, I mean 78 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,119 Speaker 1: you're seeing it, right, You're the second year stability around 79 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: the quarterback, stability around the team. Talking about the coaching staff. Um, 80 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: that's where you see that jump and and he's uh, 81 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: you know, they've added talent around him, and you know 82 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: he's using that. And of course he's a he's an 83 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: athletic guy himself. He's hard to bring down. Um, just 84 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: doing the things that we all thought he could do 85 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: when challenge. You know, you just gotta stay disciplined. Um 86 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 1: as you rush. It's a he he can break an 87 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: arm tackle pretty easily, you know, he can. He can 88 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: make you miss pretty easily. You just got to be 89 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: under control and disciplined and and um you know, try 90 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 1: to try to tackle him and maybe get four hands 91 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: on him and bring him down when you can. So 92 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: it's a it's a challenge, you know, very very much 93 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: so because you know, if you get out of your 94 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: rush lanes, he can he can make you make you 95 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: pay with his legs. You look at the touchdown pass 96 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: that to day Jones, is that sort of an example. 97 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: I mean, Trevor gets a little bit of pressure coming 98 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: up the middle, so he rules it right by more time. 99 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: But it seems like Zay did a good job of 100 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: adjusting as well. And you know, because a lot of 101 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: times when a quarterback rules the right by side, you know, 102 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: it ends up throwing the ball the way when you're 103 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: in a in a box that small. Yeah, you know, 104 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: And it's something that we you know that we work on. 105 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: We work on red zone scramble and the rules that apply, 106 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: you know, um, in a tight condensed area of the 107 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: field and every team, Every offensive team goes through it, 108 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: you know, and just having a having a plan for 109 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: when the quarterback, you know it's starts to run and 110 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: and Zay and Trevor we're on the same page and 111 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: they did exactly what we asked him to do and 112 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: it worked out. Follow up, you guys are obviously getting 113 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: a lot more love, attention, whatever you want to put 114 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: on it from from the national BEGIA this week. I 115 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: would how would you expect your team to handle something 116 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: like that to make sure it doesn't become any kind 117 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: of a distraction or you know, I expect the team 118 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: to handle it, you know, one with class and one 119 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: with with just you know the fact that okay, you 120 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: know that's fine. You know, um we still have to 121 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: go to work every day and prepare for another football game. 122 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: And um, you know that starts with me, you know, 123 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: during the week and setting the tone that way and 124 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: just keeping us keeping us focused on task. Last week 125 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: against Washington when you watch it back on tape, what 126 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: led to that for that? It's a great pass rush. 127 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: They can do it with four, they can do it 128 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: with five. Combination of the two. Um, you know, I 129 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: think you know, you know, Fletch is still fletch and 130 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: and he he can he can push the pocket. They've 131 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: got edge guys that can still you know, bend and 132 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: Josh wedb is playing good and he's long and kind 133 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: of slithery and um, you know b G You watch 134 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: him and he's he's a guy that can get under 135 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: your pads and and and push the pocket. So all 136 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: these guys have have talent to do that, and so 137 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: that's what you're seeing. Um and you know, um a 138 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: lot of them to the secondary covering the receivers and 139 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: nowhere to go with the football. That's part of it. UM. 140 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's a challenge. You know, it's a 141 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: challenge is to defend you know, four possibly five guys. 142 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: And that's said knowing that Luke took a significant step 143 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: forward this past week as a rookie, you know, starting 144 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: at center for a third straight week. UM, knowing he's 145 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: going up against a guy like Flesh, Um, what sort 146 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: of challenge is that going to present for him? It's 147 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: a it's a big challenge, huge challenge. You know, you're 148 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: talking about a guy that's been in this league for 149 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: a long time and knows how to knows how to 150 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: rush and and uh, he's crafty at it. He's smart, 151 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: very skillful, and um, he's calculated. And Luke's gonna have 152 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: to just just watch a lot of tape you know, 153 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: this week, and just you know, we're gonna have to 154 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: help him when we can, um, whether we slide to 155 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: him or use it back or whatever we can do 156 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: to disrupt some timing. I mean, that's what you do 157 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: with good pass rushers right in this league. We did 158 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: it last week with with Bosa, Bosa and Max. So 159 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: each week, you know, you never know who that guy 160 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: is this week it just happens to be an interior linement. 161 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: Any coincidence of why or is it a quincidence? You've 162 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: been so good in the third quarter these three weeks, 163 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: So the numbers are staggering what you're doing to kind 164 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: of put games away? How woul do you attribute that? 165 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: I just think it's a credit to the guys. Really 166 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: just understand, we make we make subtle adjustments at halftime, 167 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: you know, and then and then come out and really, 168 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: um still try to execute the game play, you know. Um, 169 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: I think the guys feel some energy when you have, 170 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, a lead at halftime. You know, there's some 171 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: of that and and really um, you know, again leaning 172 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: leaning on the run game a little bit has helped 173 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: opened up some things. But we talk about, you know, 174 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: sort of that middle eight right of the game, whether 175 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: it's the end of the second second quarter to the 176 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: beginning of the third, and it's important that the offense 177 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: gets points where the defense gets off the field, you know. 178 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: And those are things that we talked about and and 179 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: uh and stress all the way back to you know, 180 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: the off season. One of the reasons, I'm sorry, one 181 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: of the the reasons you decided just to stay put and 182 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: not I'd go north and get away from the storm. 183 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: Assume you learned something those years in in my ending 184 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: when you were a player from what don shula do you? 185 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: What's your what's your philosophy with the hurricane and how 186 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: you're handling It's really the families. I mean, if we leave, 187 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: the families are still here, you know, kind of fending 188 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: for themselves. And and and we gotta you know, as 189 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: husbands and dads, and we want to make sure that 190 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: they're well taken care of. And the organization can help, 191 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: you know, take care of the families. And and then 192 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: just monitoring the storm too, and just seeing you know 193 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: where the impacts are going to be. And um, you know, 194 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 1: I would say if it was more of a direct 195 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: hit and things were going to be a little bit worse, 196 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: we'd probably consider leaving. But I think things are, you know, 197 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: other than some wind and some rain. I think Friday, 198 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna be okay, and and just stay here. 199 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: Were you there when Andrew was there? You were on 200 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: and off the roster and here I was there. Yeah, 201 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: that was there. My wife, My wife had to leave, 202 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: she evacuated. Um, she was in the car heading north, 203 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: and we had to get as far north as a 204 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: team as possible. Um, so you know, obviously it hit 205 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: South Miami down in there, and and we got as 206 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: far up as you know, Fort Lauderdale and and in 207 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: that part of town away from the facility and tried 208 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: to just ride it out. Talking about this team's maturity, 209 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: you think this is something they handle us and attraction 210 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: as well. I mean, yeah, you know, this is something 211 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: that you know, I talked about this morning. You know, 212 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: we know that the storm's coming, right and it can 213 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: disrupt lives and the order of business. Each week. We 214 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 1: just kind of gets you out of your routine a 215 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: little bit, but you know, the biggest, the biggest thing 216 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: is just just maintaining you know, focus and concentration. We 217 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: we've got people in place to help, you know, the 218 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: players and the coaches and their families, and and let's 219 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: let's stay on task, you know, game plan today and 220 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: tomorrow and and Friday. Um, and look, if we have 221 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: to adjust, we adjust. That's just just part of it. 222 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: Your emotions. How much of this week is the test 223 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 1: of your emotions? Uh, obviously going back, but even on 224 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: Sunday in the locker room in l A, we had 225 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: guys talking already they want to go play and win 226 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: this one for you type of thing. I mean, do 227 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: you suppressed? Yeah, I mean that's great, you know, and everything, 228 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: and and I appreciate that, you know, from the team. 229 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: But you know, look, this is a good football team, 230 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: and we understand. And that is still week four. You know, 231 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: there's a lot of football ahead of us, and and um, 232 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: you know, we just gotta we just gotta prepare, you know, 233 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: and and do do the right things during the week. 234 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: And that that includes me, you know, And I gotta 235 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: I gotta stick to my routine and and stay diligent 236 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 1: with that and the study and the planning and um, 237 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 1: you know, prepare myself just like the players do. So 238 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: you know it starts with me and and um, you know, 239 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: I'll keep relaying that message to the teams. Struggle a 240 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 1: little bit here, any roller coaster? What is it about? 241 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: Did two defensive guys? Walker and Lloyd? They really on 242 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: the suscension of and I've really played well. Um. I 243 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: believe some of it can be the fact that they've 244 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: played a lot of football, you know, on a big 245 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: stage in college. Some of it. Um, So it's it's uh, 246 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: it's not unfamiliar you know, territory to them. But these 247 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: guys are both just tremendous workers, and they prepare so 248 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: well during the week, practice hard. They want to be 249 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: great players in this league. Um, and that's what you're 250 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: seeing with both of them, and and it's paying off 251 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: in the games of the league. Amazon. Yeah, exactly what 252 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: does that say about progress? What does that say about 253 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: his progress and and sort of where you've seen him 254 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: grow over the past couple of weeks. Well, it just 255 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: shows that he is progressing. Number one. Number two, I 256 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: think the guys around him, you know, are playing extremely well, 257 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: meeting the offensive line and really everybody on on offense, 258 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: you know, and and just it's it's it's part of 259 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: our you know, the progression of of our offense and 260 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: the steps that we need to take to be a 261 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: to be a great offense in this league. You know 262 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: we're not there yet. But but that's a that's a 263 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: step in the right direction. And um, you know he 264 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: understands too that he can't get that type of recognition 265 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: without the guys around him. Sariously what type of players 266 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: he and he gets back to him the shadow Christian 267 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: Kirk this week. It'll be interesting, he I tell you, 268 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: you know, I had him, you know, we brought him, 269 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: brought him to Philadelphia, and he's playing extremely well right now. Um, 270 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: you know, a top defender corner in this league. He's 271 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: creating some turnovers and takeaways and um, you know, he 272 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: matched receivers the last two weeks. Um. The only thing 273 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: that I would say is he doesn't necessarily go inside, 274 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: you know, as a as a not a nickel, but 275 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: a corner that would go inside if Christian were inside. 276 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: But I think that's something we've got to be aware of, 277 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: you know, and understand where he's going to be. Um, 278 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: maybe maybe lean towards a a little bit, you know, 279 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: possibly on the outside, but um, great player. Gotta understand 280 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: where he's at and how they how they want to 281 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: use him. Shack Griffin and if you could evaluate Trey 282 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: Herndon stepping in for him this past weekend. Um, Shock's 283 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: doing good. Um, I'll be back out on the practice 284 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: field today. And Trey played well. He played really well, 285 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: and um, it was good to see Trey. It was 286 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: great probably for him to get back out there and 287 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: really have you know, meaningful snaps and and he did 288 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: a really nice job for Uce. Any other injuries coming 289 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: out of Sunday's game, Van Lannon Cole is the one 290 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: that has a hamstring coming out of the game, So 291 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna he's gonna miss today and and and potentially 292 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: you know, this week, So he's the only one. Tough 293 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: of an environment can it be in Philly for the 294 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: visiting team, It's tough. It's extremely tough. I mean the 295 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: second you pull into that stadium, you know, the fans 296 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: are cheering and fans are bowing and fans are yelling, 297 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: and um, it's a great environment, you know for a 298 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: football game, but it's it's loud. Um, it's it's the 299 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: stadium is kind of right on top of the field, 300 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: and and um, it's it's a challenge. It's a challenge 301 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: to be able to handle crowd noise and and um 302 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: try to you know, try to keep your composure. And 303 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: you learn a lot about a young team going into 304 00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: an environment like that. Certainly, certainly that's something that you know, 305 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: we'll talk a lot about that this week. Uh, just 306 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: how to how to handle that, try to you know, 307 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: we say block out the noise, but it's gonna be loud, 308 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: but you do have to block out the noise, you know, 309 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: and just focus on your job. And and we'll try to, 310 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: you know, try to simulate that some this week in practice. 311 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: Back to the injuries, I'm just curious, in a while 312 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: your years of coaching and playing, have you ever had 313 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: five straight days of no one on an injury report. 314 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: I can't say I've had that many days. Yeah, you know, 315 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: that's that might be a first, you know, it might 316 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: be a first. And again, I just think it's a 317 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: credit to the players and obviously our medical staff for 318 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: keeping those guys on the field a right guys, thank you, 319 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: thank you.
