WEBVTT - Press Pass: Carson Wentz

0:00:01.320 --> 0:00:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Of course, and I don't think what the wind is

0:00:02.640 --> 0:00:04.680
<v Speaker 1>this the team we have to start the season off,

0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:10.039
<v Speaker 1>but in Washington, and Washington's obviously a big one for us.

0:00:10.039 --> 0:00:11.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, last year we struggled on the road. I'm

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:13.520
<v Speaker 1>couldn't ask for a better opportunity to come down here

0:00:13.960 --> 0:00:16.400
<v Speaker 1>divisional arrival like this. I mean, it was so cool

0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:18.960
<v Speaker 1>being out there. The Eagles fans showed up in an

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 1>amazing form, you know, hearing the Eagles chant at the end.

0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean they traveled so well, so Um, that made

0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it a lot of fun to play out there and

0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:28.840
<v Speaker 1>getting this season off started like this, It feels really good.

0:00:30.000 --> 0:00:33.959
<v Speaker 1>First touchdown Free just looked like it was a kind

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.159
<v Speaker 1>of himpervise at that point. How much of that is

0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 1>a result of practice and how much of its just

0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:40.240
<v Speaker 1>theays take? Yeah, I mean a lot of it honestly

0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:43.400
<v Speaker 1>is instinct. Um, they ran a good coverage and um,

0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 1>just kind of things broke down and I just made plays.

0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:48.839
<v Speaker 1>But that's something we've talked about all off season is

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:51.360
<v Speaker 1>just hey, guys, never never die out there. Just always

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:53.479
<v Speaker 1>stay alive, get open. And Nelson did a great job,

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 1>and I think we had a couple of other guys

0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 1>open as well. Um, and that's just a big thing

0:00:57.080 --> 0:00:59.520
<v Speaker 1>that that will kind of continue to continually work on

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:06.280
<v Speaker 1>and it'll be a big part of our game. I

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 1>guess that's news to me. I don't know, Carson, good question. Um,

0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>you Deven's play fantastic sid the three points forms and

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 1>it interception. How huge were they today? Defense is huge?

0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:19.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, defense is huge. I mean, we know what

0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:21.480
<v Speaker 1>those guys can do. So we've just got a limit

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 1>our turnovers, limit our mistakes, stay on the field and

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:25.640
<v Speaker 1>put those guys in good situations because they're gonna get

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>their job done in and they did a great job

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:29.600
<v Speaker 1>of Parson. There's been a lot of fun last year

0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:32.440
<v Speaker 1>about what was going on with Nelson, and it looks

0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:35.039
<v Speaker 1>like this offseason thought as confidence I mean comes out

0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 1>today and shows it. How much of a good step

0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 1>and poo first game is he's for Nelson Ling four especially. Yeah,

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:42.679
<v Speaker 1>I think it's big for him. I think it's big

0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:44.960
<v Speaker 1>for him. But but honestly, going back to the offseason,

0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.720
<v Speaker 1>I just saw a more confident player. I saw he

0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>was working and we were always talking about what he

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:52.000
<v Speaker 1>can do differently different things, and um just kind of

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:55.520
<v Speaker 1>see it just a new confident player and starting season

0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 1>off the way he did today, Um, it was huge

0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:02.600
<v Speaker 1>for him. Went to the guys a lot more of

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.040
<v Speaker 1>them to receivers. What do you attribute that to? That's

0:02:05.080 --> 0:02:06.880
<v Speaker 1>just part of the way they played it, you know,

0:02:06.960 --> 0:02:08.720
<v Speaker 1>their defense I mean kind of took some things away

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:11.120
<v Speaker 1>on the outside of times and UM, you know, it

0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:12.680
<v Speaker 1>was just kind of all part of of how how

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.200
<v Speaker 1>the offense work today. But UM, we're at the same

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.119
<v Speaker 1>time not worried about it. We know Tory and Alshani

0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:20.360
<v Speaker 1>will get there's. UM it was just again kind of

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 1>something that that their defense did well today on the space.

0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:32.919
<v Speaker 1>Can you off totally? Totally? I mean, yeah, that's that's

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:36.040
<v Speaker 1>tough on on you know the secondary. Um, anytime a

0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:38.840
<v Speaker 1>quarterback and it just extend plays and and find guys

0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>down field. I mean they have to cover for a

0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:43.080
<v Speaker 1>long time and that can be really frustrating. UM. Talking

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:45.120
<v Speaker 1>to our defense a lot during the spring and just

0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>how frustrating that is. UM. So again, that's something that

0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:49.679
<v Speaker 1>we just got to keep developing and being on the

0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:52.360
<v Speaker 1>same page. How pressure take it take off the offense.

0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 1>We let your cops just be stuff fun. Yeah, obviously, Fletcher,

0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean churn again was it was a great addition

0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to the Austine for us. Um. You know that whole

0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>defense is an amazing job. We know we have an

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 1>incredible front four with with depth as well. UM. You know,

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.800
<v Speaker 1>obviously losing Darby today, prayers will be with him and

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:11.960
<v Speaker 1>we'll see kind of what what that was. But you know,

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.359
<v Speaker 1>we know our defense is extremely talented. You know, we've

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:16.520
<v Speaker 1>we've gone up against him now for for way too long,

0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>so it's good to finally get weak one here. But um, yeah, again,

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:23.800
<v Speaker 1>we know those guys will take care of their business.

0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I think it just opens things up, and I think

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.520
<v Speaker 1>it opens things up. Obviously we've missed um the first

0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:30.720
<v Speaker 1>play the game to Tori um and I just overthrew

0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:32.800
<v Speaker 1>him on the other one. But um, I think it'll

0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.360
<v Speaker 1>nonetheless team see that, UM, and it will open some

0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.200
<v Speaker 1>things up underneath. You know, I think Urt's had had

0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>a big game today and that's something that just having

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:42.080
<v Speaker 1>those elements will will continue to open things up for Sprowls,

0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 1>for Art's, for Nelson in the slot and some different things.

0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 1>So that's a big part of our game scramble. But

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>that's just an example. It's an example of you too probably,

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 1>you know. Again that kind of just all came down

0:03:57.440 --> 0:04:01.520
<v Speaker 1>to that improvised you know play broke down a free rusher, um,

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 1>and he was just on on the same page as me.

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>He saw the open, open zone there to to just

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of take advantage of it. And um, again, that's

0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 1>something that we've all with Arts, with with Nelson, with Tory,

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 1>with Alshan, it really everybody that we've all just kind

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:15.760
<v Speaker 1>of worked on. Is I always just him in there

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:17.520
<v Speaker 1>and never never died, never quit out there and never

0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 1>quit plays, never dead. So that's a big, big part

0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>of us what we do. Do you think you're better

0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:24.040
<v Speaker 1>at keeping your eyes down the fields? Now? Obviously that's

0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:28.240
<v Speaker 1>a big part of those plays. Keep down, Um, I

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:30.320
<v Speaker 1>think it's just a comfortability thing, you know. I would

0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:33.160
<v Speaker 1>say I probably am a little better. It's it's something. Um,

0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:35.279
<v Speaker 1>there's a fine line though. Sometimes there's a time you

0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:36.840
<v Speaker 1>just gotta take off and get what you can get,

0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>and um, you know you're never gonna be perfect, but

0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.359
<v Speaker 1>in those times, instincts really take over. But I do

0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:43.880
<v Speaker 1>feel confident with we just keeping my eyes downfield and

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 1>making plays when they're there. Go about the running game

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:48.440
<v Speaker 1>to date look like it didn't quite ever get in here.

0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.279
<v Speaker 1>What do you think was going on here? Yeah, I

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>mean they did a good job. You know, hats out

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:55.080
<v Speaker 1>to Washington. They did a good job, and uh, you know,

0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:58.039
<v Speaker 1>I think we had some things there. Um, you know,

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.160
<v Speaker 1>I guess I don't know that. I think Washington's I

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:01.440
<v Speaker 1>had a good game plan, but at the end of

0:05:01.440 --> 0:05:04.480
<v Speaker 1>the day, we made enough plays to win. You got

0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:07.159
<v Speaker 1>a lot of questions about Alshon and Tory already. What's

0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:09.919
<v Speaker 1>it kind of what's the chemistry between you guys, and

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.159
<v Speaker 1>how does it feel to play with too wide receiver

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>that has such experience in the end up? Already? Obviously

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:15.920
<v Speaker 1>it feels great. You know, I don't know what their

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.120
<v Speaker 1>numbers were today, um, but at the end of the day,

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>we know that what they can do. We know what

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.359
<v Speaker 1>they bring to our offense. Obviously, Tori with his with

0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 1>his deep threat um and then al Sean just his

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 1>big playability. Um. We know what they can do. UM.

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.039
<v Speaker 1>So whether they get there's numbers wise or not, we

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:33.560
<v Speaker 1>know what they're doing to defense, and um, defense have

0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:35.360
<v Speaker 1>to kind of respect them as well. So I feel

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:38.000
<v Speaker 1>really good, really feel really comfortable with those guys as well.

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 1>The Big Bang a love that is Mac Hollands bringing

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 1>the offense. Yeah, he brings some versatility. You know, he

0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>brings a big play, big body as well. You know,

0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>he's got some range to him. Um, So he can

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>do a little bit everything. He can go in the slide,

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:51.120
<v Speaker 1>he can play Z, he can play x UM and

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:53.279
<v Speaker 1>he's just a solid guy to you know, if somebody

0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:55.240
<v Speaker 1>goes down, he can jump in and kind of not

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>miss a beat. When on offense today, especially the office

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:02.039
<v Speaker 1>of plays versus a couple of mistakes and turnovers, what's

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 1>your bottom line assessment of the ball before we're two

0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:05.480
<v Speaker 1>of the offense. Yeah, at the end of the day,

0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 1>we won. You know, we made enough plays to win. Um,

0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:10.320
<v Speaker 1>are there things that we left on the field totally?

0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:12.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, we made some mistakes to turn over some

0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>different things here and there. We got to get those fixed,

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 1>but we made enough plays to win. So we're gonna

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:20.000
<v Speaker 1>enjoy that first play the game. As an offense. What

0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.479
<v Speaker 1>kind of tone is that set for? What you got

0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 1>to say? Yeah, I think that just shows that we're aggressive.

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.560
<v Speaker 1>Coaches is gonna be aggressive. We're gonna be aggressive. We're

0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 1>not gonna just sit back and wait. You know, We're

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 1>gonna try and try and make plays early and early

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:34.040
<v Speaker 1>and often. And I love that about coach Peterson, you know,

0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:35.920
<v Speaker 1>I love the way he called the game today. UM

0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:38.159
<v Speaker 1>came out aggressive right away, and UM kind of just

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:45.520
<v Speaker 1>stayed on. Thank you, thank you, all right, Carson Way
