1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,159
Speaker 1: Can you take us through maybe halftime conversations with Dave's

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: when it came to a quarterback switch.

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 2: Well, keep those conversations private. Whatever Daves wants say. I

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 2: kind of disclose on that, but you know it was

5
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 2: a decision was made and we went with that. For

6
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 2: a rookie like JMS. Just how big of a challenge

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: is you know, going to against a guy like Aaron

8
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 2: Donald's friend. Yeah, I mean Aaron Donald's a you know,

9
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame type player. He's a really good, talented player.

10
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 2: He plays in a good scheme that's well coached. It's

11
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 2: gonna be a big child, not for just you know, rookie,

12
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 2: but for everyone from the front line.

13
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: Mike and that Eagles game.

14
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 3: How does Jalen Hyatt not have a target? Like I

15
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 3: look at his speed and just say, maybe you give

16
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 3: him a chance and he hits a big one.

17
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there was. There was a few calls

18
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 2: there that that we had for him and you know,

19
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 2: just didn't get the coverage. Sometimes it happens, but every

20
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 2: week is different, you know, and every week we're looking

21
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 2: to improve to get everyone involved in the offense.

22
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 3: What did you see from Tyrod in the second half?

23
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: I think Tyro dide a great job just stepping up.

24
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 2: You know, he made some big plays. He did some

25
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 2: nice things with the football with his legs. You know,

26
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: I was, you know, not not shocked, you know, And

27
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 2: I think he's a He's a guy that you know,

28
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 2: is gonna prep and do it, do it the right way,

29
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 2: and he did nice stuff.

30
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 1: Any for us, does the playbook open up anymore with

31
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: a veteran like Tyrod compared to an undrafted rookie.

32
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 2: I think there's there's differences. You're gonna build the game

33
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 2: plan around each player's strengths, whether it's quarterback, running back, receivers,

34
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 2: whole line. You want to you want to build the

35
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 2: you know, the best game planning can around the guys

36
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 2: what they do best. What are specifically tyrod strengths. He's

37
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 2: he's been the league for you know, thirteen years. I

38
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 2: think it's there's a lot that he does, not not

39
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 2: just on the field, but as a as a leader,

40
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 2: as a good teammate. I think Tyrod does a hell

41
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: of a job, you know, in the huddle getting guys organized.

42
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: So there's there's a I mean, there's a lot of

43
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: things that he does just outside of playing the quarterback

44
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: position that I think make him.

45
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: Special touchdown Slayton. Obviously the throw is right on the money,

46
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: but Slayton's body control maybe doesn't get as much attention

47
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: as his speed. But to be able to you know,

48
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: what kind of skill does he need in that situation

49
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: to not only make the catch, but then you know,

50
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: kind of stop himself, start again and get Yeah.

51
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: I mean it was number one, a great route, great

52
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 2: job by the online, great protection up front, Tyrod game,

53
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: a great ball and he went you know, he went

54
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 2: down there and grabbed it, so great concentration, great catch,

55
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 2: great balance, and you know he's a he's a tremendous

56
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 2: athlete with great speed, so it wasn't shocking to see

57
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 2: him make a play like that, and he's done that

58
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: several times this year. It was just to help apply You.

59
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: Mentioned Tyrod's huddle organization. I guess how long does that

60
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: take for quarterbacks to kind of get that under their

61
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: belt and for someone like Tommy.

62
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 2: Who was on Yeah, I think I think that in

63
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 2: the NFL it's different over the last call it ten years?

64
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: Where did you see it in the college game? A

65
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 2: lot of teams are no, so there's not just there's

66
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: a there's not a huddle mechanism in the college level

67
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: as much as there is in the NFL level, So

68
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: you're getting signals from the sidelines and you're getting boards

69
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: and those type of things. So when you get young players,

70
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: that's kind of an adjustment. Whether it's receivers, whether it's quarterback,

71
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: it's kind of an adjustment period of getting the guys

72
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 2: in the huddle, talking to them, getting through the situations,

73
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: talking about the cadence and all those type of things

74
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: the play call. So I think as you get young players,

75
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: it just takes time to develop more comfortable they get.

76
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: Some guys are faster than others, so it just takes time.

77
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 2: Everyone's a little bit different.

78
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: How is Tommy with that just in the games that

79
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 3: he was able to.

80
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 2: Play, Yeah, as a young guy, I mean, it kind

81
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: of was that process where it started off a little slow,

82
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: then it just got better each and every day, and

83
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: he worked to improve on it and he got to

84
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: a point where you know, now he's very comfortable, you know,

85
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: in and out of the huddle.

86
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: I don't know if this would have made a difference,

87
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 3: but after Waller's catch late there seemed to be like,

88
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 3: should I get off. Should I get on? And it's

89
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 3: like a little bit of an extra runoff, you might

90
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 3: have had one more play.

91
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: I mean, what happened in that situation?

92
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Waller, I mean Waller got landed funny or got hit,

93
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: and you know he was he was in that kind

94
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: of no man's land where you know, we got to

95
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: keep him on the field just to get the ball spotted.

96
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: So you don't, you know, wherever they spotted. You don't

97
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 2: want to get that ten second runoff for an injured player.

98
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: Obviously his health is super important to us. But I

99
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 2: thought he toughed it out and tried to get you know,

100
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: try to get sent as fast as he could and

101
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: get the ball sat and snapped so we could have

102
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 2: at least one more play.

103
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 3: And he did bring the ball, you know, like what

104
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: what's the rule?

105
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 2: And that like like ran over there and then brought it.

106
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 3: Like I think, where were they standing there with the

107
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 3: ball in the side?

108
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: So you know, the procedure would be is if you're

109
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: the ball here, you catch it, you know, you get

110
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 2: tackled and bounds, you run it to the hash and

111
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 2: get the ball spotted, whether it's the center given it

112
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: to the ref. But in that scenario, Barkley made a

113
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,799
Speaker 2: hell hell a smart play and just went and grabbed

114
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 2: it just to get the ball spotted where. You know,

115
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: Waller was kind of in that in that spot of

116
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: does he want to run off and he wants to

117
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 2: stay on there, but we were telling our guys to

118
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: stay on the field, and again, I mean the injury

119
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: side of it. You know, it's a there's a fine

120
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: line right there and making sure the guy's okay. But

121
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 2: he toughed it out and got the ball spot for us.

122
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: Now, if he comes off or that situation, I know,

123
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: the injury run off, but if he comes off, then

124
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: it gives the defense time to substitute, right, So that

125
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: probably would have led to even more time coming off.

126
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly if it was an injury time out there

127
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 2: about a ten second run off. No, under two minutes.

128
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: If you sub on and off, there's no substitution time.

129
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: Good.

130
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike, going into that game, did you think a

131
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: quarterback change in mid game was a possibility, Like, was

132
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 2: that something you guys had talked about as something to

133
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: possibly be prepared. No, I think I think Davis had

134
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 2: hit It was kind of one of those things that

135
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: we want to see a spark for the offense
