WEBVTT - Press Conference: Carson Wentz October 7

0:00:01.320 --> 0:00:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Other slow start pretty films today. Can you pinpoint why

0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:08.559
<v Speaker 1>the most I can't. I can't unfortunately slow start something

0:00:08.600 --> 0:00:10.760
<v Speaker 1>that we we preach all the time, talk about it

0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:13.520
<v Speaker 1>every every week that we want to start fast and uh,

0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:15.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, credit to the Vikings coming out and making

0:00:15.480 --> 0:00:21.479
<v Speaker 1>some stops. Um, yeah, we just slow start. Uh this,

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:23.840
<v Speaker 1>how do you get out of the way that sack

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:27.760
<v Speaker 1>fumble order? Can you feel that pressure coming? It's just happening.

0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean my eyes were the other way. Um, if

0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:32.519
<v Speaker 1>I was looking the other side of the field, I

0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:34.919
<v Speaker 1>probably would have avoided it and been just fine. But um,

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:40.960
<v Speaker 1>that's football covery. We have to restrict bad. Why is

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:44.159
<v Speaker 1>it happened to be better team? Yeah, it's unfortunate. You

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:47.360
<v Speaker 1>know those are things that I mean, we gotta take

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:50.199
<v Speaker 1>a real hard look in the mirror. Um, little mistakes

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 1>like that, and kind of the same thing I really

0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>echoed last week after the game. Um, these little mistakes

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:58.800
<v Speaker 1>that sometimes can go overlooked are just killing us. And

0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:01.720
<v Speaker 1>we're playing like we're a young rookie team and we're not.

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:03.840
<v Speaker 1>And so we got to really be hard on ourselves

0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>and learn from these mistakes and uh turn around fast.

0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:09.360
<v Speaker 1>Frustrating was that dry specifically to get the ball with

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:13.400
<v Speaker 1>great field position. And yeah, very frustrating. I mean we

0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, we went down, scored, had momentum, got the

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.399
<v Speaker 1>ball back uh, in a great position, and then we

0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>just go backwards, backwards, backwards, and um, yeah, I mean

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 1>it's extremely frustrating. Are you feeling more pressure, um, a

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:30.160
<v Speaker 1>certain circumstances, certain circumstances. Do you feel it's when blitz

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:31.960
<v Speaker 1>is versus four man watches or anything that you feel

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:34.960
<v Speaker 1>like they're getting more pressure for I don't think so. Um.

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.119
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's just been kind of nature of the game,

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, unfortunate sacks and little things here and there

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>that again, we got to keep cleaning up, um. And

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean the same thing goes for the last couple

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:47.319
<v Speaker 1>of weeks. It's it's not one guy's fault. It's not

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>just the A line, it's not just the backs, it's

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of me. It's it's everything. And um, yeah,

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:55.480
<v Speaker 1>we got to clean it up though, was Malcolm's message.

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 1>When you've got to address the team in I mean,

0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that the beautiful thing for us right now

0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 1>is it's a fast turnaround. You know, we go to

0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 1>get the bad taste out of our mouth fast and

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:08.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, go on the road to New York Thursday

0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:10.800
<v Speaker 1>night'll beer before we know it. So it's it's really

0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 1>coming tomorrow, ready to work and get ready for New York.

0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:15.960
<v Speaker 1>So um, like I said, just put this one behind us,

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>learn from it. But uh yeah, we don't have to

0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.000
<v Speaker 1>dwell on it too. The course in the NFL is

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 1>enforcing a lot of rules to protect the quarterbacks. Um,

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm interesting interested in what your point of view is

0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:28.400
<v Speaker 1>looking at the one against Michael Bay and what do

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 1>you make of the rules and how they're enforced. I mean, honestly,

0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see that one. Um, I know it's I mean,

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:35.919
<v Speaker 1>I know the revs are are in a tough spot

0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>with with some of the new rules, and um, it's

0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:42.959
<v Speaker 1>unfortunate when it when it happens against you. But yeah,

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't actually see the place. I don't have a

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.760
<v Speaker 1>real comment time. How do you feel just in terms

0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:49.880
<v Speaker 1>of the flow of the game getting your third game

0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 1>back now, where do you kind of feel like you're at? Person?

0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel fine. You know, obviously we're um kind of

0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:58.960
<v Speaker 1>have some ebbs and flows as an offense, slow start,

0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I've seem like we got some momentum, then we hurt

0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:04.680
<v Speaker 1>ourselves again, and um, you know, it seems like I

0:03:04.760 --> 0:03:06.359
<v Speaker 1>kind of feel like that's where we were two years ago,

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:08.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, like we were that young team making these mistakes,

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of having those ebbs and flows. Last year. Uh,

0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:13.240
<v Speaker 1>you didn't see a lot of that. Um, and so

0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:15.840
<v Speaker 1>the veteran team that we have a lot of the guys,

0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm confident that will fix it. I'm confident

0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>that will turn it around. But UM, it's frustrating right now, Darry.

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Practice this week of court started. You even emphasize kind

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 1>of eliminating the self inflicted woods. What's the next step.

0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:29.959
<v Speaker 1>It seems like everyone's harping on it, but you can't

0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>you kind of get that message through. Yeah, I mean

0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 1>it's it's frustrating again. If we don't get that fix,

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna lose a lot of games. Um. But at

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.240
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day, I know the guys in

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 1>that locker room, UM, I know guys are gonna play

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>with a sense of urgency. They're gonna come tomorrow ready

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 1>to work. And that's something that I haven't really feared.

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:47.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, even my rookie year when we were technically

0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:51.080
<v Speaker 1>out of the playoffs. Um, there's no quit in these guys.

0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're not just gonna lay down three and

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>two and three, like, we're not just gonna stop. Um,

0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna get a fix and we're gonna be We're

0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna be all right. I made tho the room, but

0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.640
<v Speaker 1>beneath the waking says, but she would you get the

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:07.400
<v Speaker 1>turnover and you're in a Churchroy and they had good

0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:09.760
<v Speaker 1>to get score on that comfortable, but they kind of

0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:12.160
<v Speaker 1>good nat out of it. Yeah, I mean we kind

0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>of talked about it a little bit, but I mean

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:15.760
<v Speaker 1>we heard we heard ourselves, you know, we heard ourselves

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.280
<v Speaker 1>at some self inflicted wounds. But at the same time,

0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>hats off of them. You know, they got good players

0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 1>over there. Uh seems like we both know each other

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>pretty well at this point having played the last couple

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.720
<v Speaker 1>of years. So hats after them for making plays and

0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:29.640
<v Speaker 1>we just got to clean it up. They've got past

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>the way all that went through his hand? Was that?

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:33.799
<v Speaker 1>Was that just you saw that no one was covering

0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 1>him or was that the where it's designed to go? Yeah,

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:38.159
<v Speaker 1>that was just we we both saw made eye contact

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:41.680
<v Speaker 1>and um, Harrison was just running over there quick and

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:45.240
<v Speaker 1>uh yeah, it was just happening. It's five straight games

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:48.840
<v Speaker 1>now where you having scored aboard twenty three points. Is

0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 1>this offense to enough for you guys to get contender

0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.479
<v Speaker 1>this year? Yeah, I mean I think we're going to be.

0:04:54.720 --> 0:04:57.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm not hanging hanging my head and dwelling

0:04:57.800 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>on it. You know, And we know what we're capable of.

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:01.479
<v Speaker 1>We know we have the potential, we know we have

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 1>the right guys. Um and one thing that we seem

0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:06.160
<v Speaker 1>to always doing, Coach does a great job putting guys

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 1>in the right spots. Again, it's really the same thing.

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.040
<v Speaker 1>We just got to stop killing ourselves. And um, I know,

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I know we'll get this thing right back on travers.

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 1>He didn't put a Frank Reich and John d Philippo.

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, obviously we missed those guys. You know, they

0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>were great, But I mean Coach Crow press Taylor, Um,

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, I think we talked about a little bit

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.280
<v Speaker 1>this week and in the press conference, but I mean

0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:30.320
<v Speaker 1>it's been extremely smooth process with those guys. I love

0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:33.320
<v Speaker 1>working with those guys every day, and um, I don't

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:36.800
<v Speaker 1>think that's any issue in our slow, slow start here.

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:39.919
<v Speaker 1>Every quarterback sneak last season one third and one in

0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>the first half. Was there any conversation? Is there? Is

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:45.800
<v Speaker 1>your health one of the reasons why they didn't go

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.080
<v Speaker 1>to there. Yeah, I'm really not sure, you know, other

0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:51.159
<v Speaker 1>than um, we saw that that playoff film, thought it,

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:52.680
<v Speaker 1>thought it would be a good one. Thought we could

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.080
<v Speaker 1>not just get you know, a couple of feet, but

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:56.560
<v Speaker 1>thought we could get a big play out of it.

0:05:56.680 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 1>And um, their defensive en made a great play, Carson,

0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>he got a deep ball to Sheldon. What is he

0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:05.840
<v Speaker 1>to the offense? Just the ability to stretch things? Yeah,

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean you said it. He's got the ability to

0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:11.240
<v Speaker 1>take the top off the defense. Um. And uh, you

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.279
<v Speaker 1>know we see him in practice kind of every week.

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:16.160
<v Speaker 1>Just keep getting better and keep building his confidence and um,

0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:18.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, we put him in there in a position

0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:20.600
<v Speaker 1>to make plays and do it he's good at and

0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:26.159
<v Speaker 1>he made a great play to night mission this season. Um.

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Obviously we haven't hit you know, many many deep balls

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 1>and everything, and it's hard to say. Obviously we'd love

0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:33.600
<v Speaker 1>to get those, and we had a handful of those

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 1>last year. But at the same time, a lot of

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:37.919
<v Speaker 1>it is what the defense is doing to us, you know,

0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:39.719
<v Speaker 1>there's not a ton of opportunities. A lot of teams

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 1>are playing soft zone against us, making us earn it. Um,

0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:44.720
<v Speaker 1>so we just got pick and choose wisely. And you know,

0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean it was good to see Shelton make that

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:49.320
<v Speaker 1>one tonight and uh yeah, hopefully they'll be more of

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:51.960
<v Speaker 1>that in the future. What's your actual level of concern

0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 1>at this point. I mean it's not early year anymore, right,

0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:58.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean frustrated, yes, Concerned No. I mean I think

0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:01.960
<v Speaker 1>we have again kind of expecting what I said. I mean,

0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:04.040
<v Speaker 1>we have veteran guys on this team, guys that have

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 1>been through it all, um, that know how to win,

0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>and uh, I think we're gonna get this thing going

0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:11.840
<v Speaker 1>right away. Thanks first, Thanks said
