1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Julani, What was it like playing in those conditions, particularly

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: on defense, when you're in one of these games that

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: is a sort of defensive rock fight and you know

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: it's going to be pretty low scoring.

5
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 2: Man, We're already and prepared for any kind of situation,

6
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 2: you know, I forgot I say, we're in Foxborough. We

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: get all types of weather out here, So it was

8
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: a great opportunity for us on defense to you know,

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 2: find opportunities and find ways to make sure that we

10
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 2: got the ball back into the offense hands, you know.

11
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 2: So you know, I hope the boys know that we

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 2: gave our all out and I'm proud of each and

13
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 2: every one of them.

14
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 3: Jelani, You look at the point you guys are giving

15
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 3: up as a unit, you know, ten to ten nouns

16
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 3: down to six, you lose your probably the two best

17
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 3: defenders at the start of the year, Gonzales at corner,

18
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: Judaan at the end, You and Peppers seem to have

19
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 3: morphed into the leaders of this defense along with Duggar.

20
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 3: Just talk about your track where it was at the

21
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 3: beginning of the year to where you're at now. How

22
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 3: comfortable do you feel out there playing right now?

23
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: Because it looks good, you know, I know, I know

24
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 2: we lost a lot of you know, goys from injuries,

25
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: but you know, this is the league where you know,

26
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: next man mentality, So you know, it's on guys like

27
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: you know you said myself and guys like Peb to

28
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: step up to the challenge or step up to the opportunity.

29
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: But our standard on defense is high, you know. We

30
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: we we strive for perfection. We every week we're we're

31
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: at each other's throats because we're trying to, you know,

32
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: make sure that we're dialed in, focused and prepared to

33
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 2: execute any any type of player, any type of situation.

34
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 4: July, just following up on Zoe's question, So you guys

35
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 4: give up six points to a team that averages over

36
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 4: twenty four and I'm just wondering how you would assess

37
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 4: how your defense did today.

38
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 2: Like I said, I'm proud of part of the guys

39
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 2: on defense. You know, you know, is it good enough?

40
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: I believe so, But it's not it's not our standard,

41
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: you know. So we're gonna make sure that. You know,

42
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: it's a short week, so we got to prepare quick

43
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: and get ready, so we can't we can't really dwell

44
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 2: on this game too long, and we got to get

45
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: ready for Pittsburgh. You know, Pittsburgh got a strong offense,

46
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 2: and come tomorrow, we'll correct those mistakes that we had

47
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 2: today and move on.

48
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 5: Jilani, whenever you say the the expectation is to strive affection,

49
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 5: Whenever you take a step back and you're allowing eight

50
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 5: points a game now these last three games, how do

51
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 5: you define how much better you guys could possibly play defensively?

52
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 2: If we're looking for perfection, we don't. We don't want

53
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: to see a score on the board, you know, I know,

54
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: I know we held their offense to no touchdowns, but

55
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 2: we don't even want them to score field goals. We

56
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 2: don't want That's that's the mentality that we have as

57
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 2: a defense. You know, we take it personal when when

58
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: they get past our fifty and and those are the

59
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: type of guys that I love playing, like playing across

60
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: from or playing with. I mean, so I'm proud of

61
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 2: each and every guy that got to run out on

62
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: the field and and you know, do their job.

63
00:02:59,040 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: Yeah,
