WEBVTT - Press Conference: Carson Wentz October 28

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I mean we we moved the ball. Well, you know,

0:00:08.880 --> 0:00:11.920
<v Speaker 1>that's the thing that was the positive sign. Obviously, both

0:00:12.000 --> 0:00:14.640
<v Speaker 1>drive into the turnovers on my part, things we got

0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:17.880
<v Speaker 1>to clean up. Um, the interception, I mean, Ramsey made

0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:19.079
<v Speaker 1>a heck of a play, kind of came out of

0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:21.439
<v Speaker 1>nowhere on us. That's that's a good player making a play.

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:23.639
<v Speaker 1>I gotta make a better read. Um. And then the

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:26.840
<v Speaker 1>fumbles unfortunate. Um. But again the positive sign was that

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:28.479
<v Speaker 1>we knew we were moving the ball. We knew we

0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:31.000
<v Speaker 1>were capable capable of it right away, um, and so

0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 1>we just built off that. That was great. I mean

0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the line got got on front and uh, Smallwood took

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:43.040
<v Speaker 1>care of the rest. I mean everyone did their job.

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:45.879
<v Speaker 1>And uh you gotta love those those screen passes that

0:00:45.920 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 1>go big like that. Yeah, yeah they did. Yep. Yeah.

0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean third down is huge. I mean anytime, I

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:09.280
<v Speaker 1>mean we always talk about situational football being third down

0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>and red zone football. UM, and today, Um, obviously third

0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 1>down was big. UM. Staying on the field, that's you know,

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:17.679
<v Speaker 1>something we pride ourselves on. We were great at it

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:19.840
<v Speaker 1>last year. UM, so it's big for us to down

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the field when we did today. Yeah, that's what that's

0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:33.080
<v Speaker 1>what we like around here. You know, we're pretty confident

0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:35.480
<v Speaker 1>in the guys we have, whoever it is catching the

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:38.320
<v Speaker 1>football out of the backfield, the running backs, tight ends,

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, everybody, Um, and it's usually a good thing

0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.120
<v Speaker 1>when we get lots of guys involved. Shoot, even I

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 1>had a catch today, so we were spreading the ball out.

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>A great play call, you know, a huge play call

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 1>in that situation by coach. Um had time to set

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:56.400
<v Speaker 1>up and let it rip and he made a great

0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:59.560
<v Speaker 1>play after the catch, you know. So that was just

0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna give a lot of credits of the play call. Yep. Yeah,

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's just what you're taught on screens. Honestly,

0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't overanalyze or overthink it. I mean it really

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:19.639
<v Speaker 1>was the line taking care of it and smaller doing

0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:32.240
<v Speaker 1>the rest. Yeah. Yeah, I mean I'm always unhappy, you know,

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm ticked off. I get frustrated. But um, it's just

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.800
<v Speaker 1>the mentality that you've developed from this game. I'm playing

0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.359
<v Speaker 1>it solong. You know, that's just Adversity's gonna strike h

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:43.359
<v Speaker 1>in a season at verse. He's gonna strike in within

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:45.880
<v Speaker 1>a game. And um, sometimes you just make bad plays

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 1>and you gotta bounce back from in. That really shows

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 1>the type of player and the type of character that

0:02:49.880 --> 0:03:01.400
<v Speaker 1>you have. H Yeah. I mean the nice thing for

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>me is it's pretty easy, you know, because those guys

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>come in ready to go. You know, guys have to

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:08.480
<v Speaker 1>shuffle around, move around, and we're asking a lot for

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:10.239
<v Speaker 1>them running backs, you know, we're asking a lot of

0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.720
<v Speaker 1>them out of the backfield, running the ball and a

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:16.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit of everything. So you might think it's it's

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.720
<v Speaker 1>a big deal, but I gotta give credit to the

0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 1>line and those guys just just coming in being ready

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>to go, and it just shows that we have good

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:28.120
<v Speaker 1>depth there. I mean, we finally we finished, you know,

0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day, we finished we still

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:31.960
<v Speaker 1>and finished the way we wanted offensively. You know, we

0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:33.680
<v Speaker 1>had that chance to kind of seal the deal and

0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 1>went three and out, which was unfortunate, but but defense

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 1>stepped up, you know, and so I think we just

0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:40.960
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day, we finished well this week,

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:49.960
<v Speaker 1>and we obviously didn't last week. Yeah, I feel extremely

0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>confident the guys that we have. You know, it's like

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you said, it's been kind of up and down for

0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>us offensively, Um, some weeks we start fast and slow

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:00.680
<v Speaker 1>or vice versa. And you know, it's just good for

0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>us to kind of go into this bye week with

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>a little momentum against a really good defense, you know,

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:07.640
<v Speaker 1>really good overall team and really good defense in the Jags,

0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and to put a good performance like that was was

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:22.680
<v Speaker 1>big for us. I mean, I wouldn't say it more myself,

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.600
<v Speaker 1>but um, that's when instincts take over, you know, at

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day. Um, like you said, when

0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:30.240
<v Speaker 1>I scrambled, I want to throw first. But um, the

0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 1>way they were covering everything, playing a lot of soft coverage,

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:34.919
<v Speaker 1>playing deep, um, and the and the plays that we

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:36.720
<v Speaker 1>had on I was able to try and extend some

0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 1>and and pick up the first down a couple of times. Yeah.

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean again, hats off the coach calling calling some

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 1>really well designed plays. You know, I think we had

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.239
<v Speaker 1>a couple more that we just missed. Um. And uh,

0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, he called him, called him at the right time.

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:00.480
<v Speaker 1>And Guy's making plays. And the end of the day,

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 1>anytime you got a play down the field, the old

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.160
<v Speaker 1>lines gotta protect you know, they got to pick it up.

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 1>And they did a great job giving me time to

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:16.680
<v Speaker 1>make those plays. Yeah, that's a huge, huge difference, um,

0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:19.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, being five hundred again, still not where he

0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:20.599
<v Speaker 1>wanted to be or where we had hoped to be,

0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>but going into the bye week knowing that the real

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>meat of our scheduled NFC East is ahead of us

0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:29.720
<v Speaker 1>when we come back from this by huge momentum and

0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:45.200
<v Speaker 1>a huge win for us heading into this. Yeah, the

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>thing I love about jam Ads you can put him

0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:48.359
<v Speaker 1>at Z and can put it at X, you can

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 1>put him at F and he's gonna get the job done,

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, both blocking and all the stuff we asked

0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.159
<v Speaker 1>our receivers to do blocking wise, but he can make place.

0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:58.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, he can beat man coverage here. I mean

0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 1>we saw him do it a couple of years ago here,

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, for a while, and um, it was big

0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:04.039
<v Speaker 1>for him to step up the way he did today,

0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:06.039
<v Speaker 1>and it was cool to have him, you know, be

0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:22.919
<v Speaker 1>the leading receiver again. It's been a while. Yeah, I

0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:24.600
<v Speaker 1>think you know, we go we go in every week

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 1>with a handful of movements and ways to move the pocket. Um,

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:30.479
<v Speaker 1>and you know, we had a lot of respect for

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>this front, you know, and and and this this secondary

0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 1>as well, so we knew if we could just move

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 1>the pocket a little bit do some things like that

0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 1>get me on the perimeter, you know where I feel

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.720
<v Speaker 1>really comfortable and guys really react well, um when things

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:50.919
<v Speaker 1>break down. You know, that was big, big for us today. Yeah,

0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's a huge win. You know, it's a

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:55.080
<v Speaker 1>huge win. You know, everyone's obviously excited heading into the

0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:57.039
<v Speaker 1>bye week, you know, to get a week off, get

0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:59.440
<v Speaker 1>our minds, to get our bodies right. That's huge. And

0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:01.360
<v Speaker 1>you know we got a long flight ahead of us

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.360
<v Speaker 1>that we're in London. There's a lot of things going on,

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:05.720
<v Speaker 1>so I think everyone's pretty excited that we're going back

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:16.000
<v Speaker 1>with winning out of lass. I mean, I think everyone

0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 1>needs a week off, you know, I think this is

0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 1>the National Football League. You are getting guys are getting

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>hit and beaten up all year long and m fortunately

0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:25.559
<v Speaker 1>Artist really falls right in the middle of our season,

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:28.320
<v Speaker 1>which is nice. But but that week off is huge

0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 1>both for people's minds and their bodies to just really

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 1>heal up, get away from the game for just a

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:35.680
<v Speaker 1>couple of days and everything and get your mind right

0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 1>so that we can come back and make this run.

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:43.200
<v Speaker 1>It was really cool, you know, it was really cool.

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Um coming in obviously I had really no idea what

0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 1>to expect or or when everyone was going to be

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.040
<v Speaker 1>cheering or who, you know, what the fans were going

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:53.120
<v Speaker 1>to be cheering for and everything. But it was an

0:07:53.120 --> 0:07:56.480
<v Speaker 1>awesome experience, awesome environment, and you know, it was definitely

0:07:56.520 --> 0:08:05.360
<v Speaker 1>a fun one over here. What's that I think that? Yeah,

0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean it sucks. You know, it's something I gotta

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:09.920
<v Speaker 1>clean up, It's something we gotta I gotta look look

0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:11.560
<v Speaker 1>in the mirror and say, how can I protect the

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 1>ball a little bit better? And sometimes it's just getting

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 1>the ball out earlier, you know, and finding my guys faster,

0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 1>and um, you had something I'm definitely looking at. Thanks guys,
