1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: How much has it been an effort on your part

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: and the whole offense to avoid the sacks. You know

3
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: there are a lot of them in the earlier games,

4
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 1: none in this pass game.

5
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was something that was the point of emphasis

6
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,319
Speaker 2: from the week prior. Try to just get the bottom

7
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 2: of my hands, take my leg, use my legs, run,

8
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 2: just make decisions a little bit quicker, and offense line

9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 2: did a great job.

10
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: I mean, it sounds obvious, but it's obviously not. You know,

11
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: get the ball out of my hands or just run,

12
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, well, what goes into all this too?

13
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: You know, you don't want to give up on a play.

14
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: You also don't want to get sacked.

15
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always a give and take.

16
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 2: You know, you realistically you want to have zero sacks,

17
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,480
Speaker 2: but you know, realistically in the game, it's not always

18
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,599
Speaker 2: going to happen each each week, week in and week out.

19
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 2: But it's just up to me just to make good

20
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 2: decisions and try to help out the offense to not

21
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: have any negatives.

22
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: How much is a healthy offense when it's not second

23
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: in fifteen? You know, you know what I mean, when

24
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 1: you're on a certain schedule, even if it's not a

25
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: big completion to not take those sacks and not be

26
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: behind the sticks.

27
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that would be good in any offense,

28
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 2: no matter who's back there with anybody. I mean, you

29
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 2: just avoiding the negative plays as a quarterback or just

30
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 2: helped keep the offense and the team on track.

31
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 4: How much are you enjoying the local attention and the

32
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 4: national attention that you're your story is bringing.

33
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 3: It's good.

34
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I appreciate the sport from everybody. Obviously, being

35
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,199
Speaker 2: from a small town, you know it's a lot going

36
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 2: on in such a small area. But I appreciate everybody.

37
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 5: To follow up on that, the idea you're close to

38
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 5: your family, the cutlets Don Bostar, right, what does it

39
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 5: feel like when a lot of people feel like right

40
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 5: now you're the embodyment of the hold in New Jersey times.

41
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to continue to be me. I'm gonna

42
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 2: let my personality show. That's it.

43
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 4: But what ways do you think you have improved since

44
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 4: in these six games that you've been playing in four

45
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 4: games as a starter.

46
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 3: And a lot.

47
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 2: I mean, there's been a lot of situations that I

48
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: haven't been in before. I think that was my first

49
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 2: two minute situation at the end of last game. It's

50
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: really all situational. But taking care of the ball. That's

51
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 2: been a big thing right now, avoiding the sacks, trying

52
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: to those minimized, just keeping the team, staying ahead of

53
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: the chance.

54
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 4: I mean, you know he's on ir but there's been

55
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 4: a sounding word for you doing this.

56
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

57
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: When he's around and he's doing his when he's done

58
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 2: doing his rehab and he's either in here in the

59
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: quarterback room, you know, I'm always picking his brain, just

60
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: having a conversation cheerleaders.

61
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 6: What is he kind of guy?

62
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 5: You know, when you see him exciting for your success?

63
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 2: Of course he's probably he's probably always the first text

64
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 2: in my phone right after the game ends, and then

65
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: usually see him in here the next morning send they're

66
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: getting treatment, So we're always talking. He's always the first one.

67
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 7: What's his advice about handling all the attentions? Obviously being

68
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 7: the starting quarterback of an NFL team's sort of like

69
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 7: probably the next level of tension, you know, eyes on you.

70
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just staying composed throughout the whole thing. You know,

71
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: it's kind of the same deal it's always been in

72
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 2: college and everything.

73
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:47,839
Speaker 6: Else.

74
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: When everything's going good, everything everybody loves you, and you know,

75
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: when you don't win, everything is I don't like you're right,

76
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 2: there's always somebody's talking this and that about you. So

77
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: staying even keeled through it all, you feel.

78
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 7: Like you're kind of seasoned in that regard, Like it

79
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 7: seems like, you know, you feel like you've kind of

80
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 7: been through that.

81
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I've dealt with the New York crowd before

82
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: playing in Syracuse. I've dealt with it before, so I

83
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: know how it goes.

84
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 5: What is a New York crowd mean?

85
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 2: Oh, they could love you or they could be the

86
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 2: complete opposite, you know, quick, depending on how certain things

87
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: are going. I know how it is there tough, but

88
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 2: they expect the best, so so we're gonna try to

89
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: give them.

90
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 6: Could you imagine this happening anywhere else, like like another city.

91
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 3: Or another team or this is.

92
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 6: It seems your situation seems pretty unique to the New York.

93
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 3: I think it's only the unique because I'm from the

94
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 3: area right then.

95
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, but if you if you would do it right,

96
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 6: if you were doing this these performances for the Bears

97
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 6: or Titans or something like that, probably wouldn't have wouldn't

98
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 6: be as big as a.

99
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 3: Not sure a lot bigger than stage.

100
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 2: I guess I would hope so. But I'm sure all

101
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 2: the extra antics of it. Just being in the area

102
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 2: certainly helps.

103
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 4: Have you let your mind go to you know, what

104
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 4: possibilities could be here for you long term, as far

105
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 4: as maybe being being the regular starter here beyond the season.

106
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 2: No, I'm just trying to take a one game at

107
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 2: a time. I don't make any decisions. My job is

108
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 2: just to go out and help the team try to

109
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 2: winn a football game.

110
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 4: How much early.

111
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 6: On did you try to get to know your teammates

112
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 6: in here, including some of the defense and players.

113
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 8: I've talked to teammates who've mentioned that, but you know,

114
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 8: it was almost like you wanted to be part of

115
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 8: their group as well.

116
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 3: Yeah. Always.

117
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: I mean it's a team game, right, It's not just

118
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 2: the offense. It's not just quarterbacks and receivers, quarterbacks, running backs.

119
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 2: Like you've got to I'm a very I think personable person.

120
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: I just I don't know, I like to vuy what

121
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,559
Speaker 2: everybody that being said.

122
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 5: How much has Sequan He's always been in your corner,

123
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 5: but how much has his respect.

124
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 3: For you care a lot. That's my thing.

125
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 2: Kind of early on, I tried to just earn respect

126
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 2: from everybody throughout my work AFT Thick and everything, whether

127
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: it's in the weight room, on the fields, film, whatever

128
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 2: it is. Just trying to earn that respect, especially from

129
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: a guy like him, was something I wanted to try

130
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 2: to do early on.

131
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 5: What do you think you did?

132
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 7: When do you think you were in? Like, you know,

133
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 7: a lot of the veterans respect.

134
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know. It might be a question for them.

135
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 2: Maybe after preseason, after played a little bit, or maybe

136
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 2: after I played in a real game. I'm not sure

137
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: I might still be going. Some people might not have you.

138
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 2: I'm still trying to can't impress everybody, but you try

139
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 2: tell me I did a story.

140
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 8: You know it's not about me, but just for context,

141
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 8: about your family at the airport, they were flying back

142
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 8: from the Detroit preseason game.

143
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 6: They were so fired up.

144
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 4: Were you playing, you know, in the role that you

145
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 4: did that day?

Speaker 6: to you during this journey as you're now at a

148
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 6: different point.

149
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 7: Obviously in your career.

150
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 2: Everything They've given me everything leading up to this point

151
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: to help get me into this position. And while I'm

152
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 2: in this position, I am living at home, as you

153
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,919
Speaker 2: all know, so they're helping me with everything external, so

154
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: I can I only have to focus on football because

155
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: there's a lot of externals going on right.

156
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,839

160
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: But I just continue just to try to give back

161
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 2: to them always.

162
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 8: Has anything surprised you about how much attention they're getting

163
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 8: and how much the story outside of you has evolved?

164
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 3: Honestly, no, I know.

165
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 2: I know how it is in the area, especially when

166
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 2: things took off, especially with the whole Italian stuff. Social

167
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 2: media is a crazy place. Things can catch fire real quick.

168
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 2: So it took off, and and try to keep going.

169
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 8: What about the season itself in the plane too, what's

170
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 8: surprised you about the process or has anything surprised you

171
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 8: about the process?

172
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say anything really surprised me to this point.

173
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: I'm just playing football, and so how.

174
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 4: Much are you how much are you thinking about the

175
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 4: playoff race? And what do you think of the chances

176
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 4: now that you're kind of back in it as a team.

177
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 2: I'm not thinking about anything but this week with the Saints, that's.

178
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 7: What do you see it from the Saints when you

179
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 7: look at this team this matchup.

180
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're a good team obviously. I have a lot

181
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: of guys on that defense, someone kind of looked up

182
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 2: to in the past, the Honey Badger. He's on that defense.

183
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 2: My first time playing against him. It's kind of kind

184
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: of a cool deal when I went through, you know,

185
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 2: scouting report and saw his name on there. Someone I've

186
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: always watched when I was younger. So that will just

187
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: be a little cool person to play against out there.

188
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 8: Are you expecting you showed to run more heavy game?

189
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 8: Kind of the impact of the defense taking advantage of

190
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 8: that this weekend.

191
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 3: Perhaps, I don't know.

192
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: We'll see, We'll see, We'll see how they play. I

193
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 2: think last week that wasn't really the whole game plan

194
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 2: kind of just abolved into that depends on the defense place.

195
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 7: I know you're on the other side, but how big

196
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 7: is it defense? Your defense is creating turnovers at the pace.

197
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 2: That they are huge. It give us the offense tremendous advantage.

198
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: The team a whole advantage offensively when you capitalize more

199
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 2: off of them. Get some more points out of it.

200
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: But they've did a tremendous job, whether that's if they

201
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: get if their offense field position, holding them the three

202
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 2: or nothing, and then just giving us a field position,

203
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 2: whatever it is. It's just it's all very beneficial part team.

204
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 8: You ever before games like you're away to calm yourself necessary?

205
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: No, yeah, just the football game and playing Stulls five

206
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 2: kind of just treat everything like practice.

207
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 4: One of the most common questions you're getting in New

208
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 4: Jersey is did records.

209
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 3: Recruit a little bit? Yeah?

210
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: Not heavy, though you surprised at the time. At the time,

211
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 2: I don't, I don't know. I'm not going to comment

212
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 2: on it, but no, I was not heavy the recruit

213
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 2: my records.

214
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 4: How much have you seen? How much have you seen

215
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 4: the offensive line improve? Like last week and maybe the

216
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 4: week before they got the game ball obviously, but you know,

217
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 4: what did you see from them as far as improvement?

218
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,599
Speaker 2: They've improved a ton weekend and week out for the

219
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: past couple of weeks. They've been meeting so much and

220
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 2: all the walk through and everything. They've taken such attention

221
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: to detail with everything, and you know, I just I

222
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: appreciate everything they're doing right.

223
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:25,719
Speaker 3: I mean, I tried to.

224
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,679
Speaker 2: Make last week, not this past week, the week before that,

225
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 2: I mean, their jobs a little harder with some of

226
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 2: the sacks.

227
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 3: Could have helped out with some of them.

228
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 2: So this week really honed in on it, and we

229
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: just tried to get that number down as low as possible.

230
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 2: I'm going to continue to try to do that moving

231
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 2: forward
