1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: Two things. First, Patrick Joe todas Patrick Graham drew up 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: that play that led to Logan's interception on Saturday's walk through. 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: From your experience, how rare is it for a coach 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: to drop a play Saturday and have confidence to use 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: it on Sunday? That seems awfully rare talk. No, Yeah, 6 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of everyone coming together, whether it's 7 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: the coaches, the players, UM, coach judge in general to 8 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 1: have the approval of and know that coach Graham and 9 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: all the other position coaches are gonna make sure they 10 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: install it and get everyone ready to go UM, so 11 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: when it does come game time that we execute UM. 12 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's definitely a first for me. And uh, 13 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: it was awesome to kind of see something like that 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 1: go in and and obviously be successful and then just 15 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: kind of on rivalreath, like, so, you guys have beat 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: Washington and obviously you just got here, but you guys 17 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: have beat Washington five in a row. Billy has beat 18 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: you guys seven in a row. Dallas has beat you 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: guys eight in a row. I'm sure when you were 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: in Green Bay you had streaks like that where you 21 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: guys kind of beat up on the rest of your division. 22 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: Does that get mental at all, Blake, Like when one 23 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: team is bullying the other team so to speak, like 24 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: it's it's a long streak like that. I'm sure in 25 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: Green Bay you guys had streaks back that against Detroit. 26 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: Does that ever get mental on either side? Overconfident for 27 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: the team that's winning or lack of confidence for the 28 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 1: team that's losing. UM. I don't think it's any confidence portion, 29 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: but it's definitely something you you think about UM throughout 30 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: the week, knowing that you can either end the streak 31 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: or continue to the street type of thing UM. And 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: so I think that's something that goes into it. But 33 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: for the most part, it's a week by week basis. Obviously, 34 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: any team can go out there and win, UM, And 35 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: I think for us, it's just keeping that improvement going 36 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: week by week and and going out there and uh 37 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: do what we need to do to get a win. 38 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: On Sunday, Canay, Blake, how are you doing good? Are 39 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: you good? This? I know this is kind of like 40 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: you know, Monday morning quarterback. And but if you look 41 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: at your season, you guys have lost six games by 42 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: a total of twenty eight points. Do you have to 43 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: look back and say, you know, wow, we could have 44 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: really been in this or this is a team that's 45 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: emerging or what. No, yeah, I think you you go 46 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: back to those games, and I think that's a tough 47 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: aspect that you look back and see, um, the small 48 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: moments where we talked about East week that we heard 49 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: ourselves knowing we could have won those games, especially all 50 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: the close ones. Um. But it's something that you also 51 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: look at and take a positive from it, um and 52 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: know that we're we're making those improvements week by week, 53 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: um and doing the things necessary to be in games. 54 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: And now it's time to start closing those games out 55 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: and do what we can do as the season continues. 56 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: That hey, Blake, you know, I'm sure you heard before 57 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: the season, you know, people didn't have the highest of 58 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: expectations for your defense, and by all indications, you've exceeded those. 59 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: I mean, is that something you guys heard and that 60 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: motivated you at all? And then and I guess how 61 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: would you have describe what the identity of this team's 62 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: defense is as you've seen it play out for nine 63 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: games now? Oh? No? Yeah, I mean you you see 64 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: things here, things especially start the season or during training 65 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: camp and things like that. But it's always been our 66 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: kind of mantra that hey, we're we're taking that submarine 67 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: and going under. It's just us, UM, that's all we 68 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: kind of care about. And that's what we've just been 69 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: working on each and every day, whether it's in practice 70 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: and meetings, UM, in the games. And I think this 71 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: team is literally just guys going out there, UM, working 72 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: hard every single day, no matter what situation we're in, UM, 73 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: improving on everything that we're being coached on. UM. And 74 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: we're just guys that I love football, UM, and I 75 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: think you you see it each and every day, no 76 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: matter who's in the game, who's on the practice field. UM, 77 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: we just love being out there together and we love 78 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: playing together as a group. And you obviously had a 79 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: background with Patrick Graham before you got here, But what 80 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: what makes him unique as a defensive corpun know we're 81 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: asking about you know, him making changes the day before 82 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: the game and he's really good adjustments and stuff like that. 83 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: But what makes me unique as a as a coordinator 84 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: From your eyes, UM, I think you hit it on 85 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: right there. I think his ability to adjust and it's 86 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: it's one of those things throughout the game. UM, I 87 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: can't remember the exact situation, but it was a moment 88 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: where all sudden he comes up to us and he's like, Hey, 89 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: I'm thinking this because we showed this or did these 90 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: types of things, and I think this is gonna mess 91 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: with him. And I'm like, oh wow, yeah, that's actually 92 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: a great idea. Like I was like, you're you're really 93 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: good at this. And so it was one of those 94 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: moments where you're trying to see, um, what he's trying 95 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: to do and how his brain is working. And I 96 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: think his brain is always working and that's what it's 97 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 1: allowed him to to make those adjustments on the flight. 98 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: Thanks man, We'll take three more. Tom Rock Schwartz and 99 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: Jordan's Tom Rock. Like, you're you're more than halfway through 100 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: the season, there's only one team that you've beaten, you 101 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: did it twice, and you're playing for what looks to 102 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: be like a share of first place on on Sunday. 103 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: How strange does that feel? No, it's definitely strange. Um, 104 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: but NFL is crazy. Um, Like I was saying earlier, 105 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: anyone can beat anyone, anybody can be in it at 106 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: any time. Um, you just kinda go with it week 107 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: by week, make the improvements necessary and and see how 108 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: kind of the the dice falls. Um. And I think 109 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: it's one of those situations where you see where we've 110 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: been through this whole season and to know that we're 111 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: we still have a shot and we still have the 112 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: opportunity right in front of us to do what we 113 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: need to do. It's it's an awesome feeling as a competitor. 114 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: You love it, are you? And And how excited are 115 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: you to get another crack at the Eagles? That was 116 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: a pretty tough loss last time? No, definitely, I think 117 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: any week, especially a division opponent, you're you're extremely pumped 118 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: up to go into that game. Um. And like you said, 119 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: obviously how the game ended last time, you kind of 120 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: want to go out there and kind of get that 121 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: that taste out of your mouth of losing and going 122 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: out there and finishing this one. Thank you of course, 123 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: Hey Blake, Um, Uh seven times to see you've had 124 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: to come in after a game and kind of, you know, 125 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: do your corrections to pick up the pieces after a loss, 126 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: uh twice. Now you'll be able to do that after 127 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: a win. Obviously it's more pleasant to do it after 128 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: a win. But what is the main difference. I mean, 129 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: is it better, is it easier to improve and see 130 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: your flaws after a win? And can that help you 131 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: guys moving forward? Does winning be getting more winning so 132 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: to speak? Um, Yeah, I think it's kind of has 133 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: that kind of momentum shifts. Um. Obviously, it's it makes 134 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: it easier to hear corrections and things like that. But 135 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: I think for the most part, that's the one thing 136 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: that you have to be as a competitor in this 137 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 1: league is a guy that can't take those moments of 138 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: all we won, like, hey, we're all good, we just 139 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: go to the next week. But you have to be 140 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: able to take a seee what small little aspects that 141 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: you can improve on that also in order to allowed 142 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: the game to to be over in the third quarter, 143 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: be over in the second quarter, um, and so on 144 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: and so forth. And so I think that's where this 145 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: team is different. Um, We're we're going into each week 146 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: no matter win or loss. Um, We're making sure that 147 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: we're improving on whatever aspects that us that individuals messed 148 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: up for us as a whole defense messed up. You're 149 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: a young veteran, but you have a lot of guys 150 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: around you who are kind of going through this the 151 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: first time after a win, do you notice a little 152 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: more confidence, a little more um something from these young guys. No, definitely, 153 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: I think it's it's a little more confidence, I think. 154 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: But overall, I think that's the been the great thing, 155 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: whether it's a win or a loss. UM, guys slowly 156 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: seeing what they're capable of, seeing what they can do 157 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: UM after they improve and and focus on the fundamentals 158 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: or the coaching points that the coaches tell us UM. 159 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: And it's been kind of an awesome things to see 160 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: these young guys stepping up in those moments and making 161 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: us place. Thank you that's here, Jordan, Hey Blake, Uh, 162 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: how different do you think the Eagles are gonna look 163 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: when you face him this time? It would be there 164 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: should be bunch of different players on the field for them. No, definitely, 165 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: I think they're starting to get healthy across the board, 166 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: and I think, UM, it's gonna be a different dynamic 167 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: on who what, got to focus on what God to 168 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: see out there. UM. Certain certain formations they might add 169 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: in UM obviously adding certain guys back, but I think overall, UM, 170 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: for us, it's just gonna be focusing on what we 171 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: can control. For ourselves and and get those improvements. It 172 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: really almost sounds like you're playing a different team, like 173 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: with the way you say that, at least offensively, I'm 174 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: not sure in the other the flip side it's the same. 175 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 1: But the way you said that, like you know, different formations, 176 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: different players, different players to focus on that, that is 177 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: that almost in the gate, like that first meeting against them, 178 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: that you have to view it differently. Yeah, I think 179 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: certain aspects of it, um, I think, But for the 180 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: majority of the parts, I think there's gonna be some similarities, um, 181 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: just different pieces at those certain um scenarios, I'd say
