Speaker 1: I'm sure. So I'm sure we're going to continue to
Speaker 1: figure out what's going on. We're gonna find out more
Speaker 1: about what's going on in the morning. So, um, I
Speaker 1: mean Ribs area. So I mean, like, like I said,
Speaker 1: I don't really have a lot of information right now,
Speaker 1: So tomorrow will be a big day. Oh yeah, ye
Speaker 1: term ventulations yet what was the moment like in Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's been like I said, it's been a
Speaker 1: crazy year. Um, it was really special as we were
Speaker 1: waiting for the other game to finish after we had
Speaker 1: taken care of business on the field. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: it's super exciting. I mean anytime you're you're blessed to
Speaker 1: be able to play in the playoffs, and especially the
Speaker 1: road we've had these last several weeks. I mean, it
Speaker 1: hasn't been an easy ride. And uh, you know we
Speaker 1: got some help today, and uh, I mean it's really special.
Speaker 1: We get to keep playing, we get to wear the
Speaker 1: Eagles jersey one more time. Um, and and you know,
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. The locker rooms super excited, and you
Speaker 1: know it'll be hard to sleep tonight. Yeah. I think
Speaker 1: the big thing I've talked about is, you know, there
Speaker 1: was never an equating attitude. I mean, though we might
Speaker 1: not have been winning all the games we wanted to, UM,
Speaker 1: guys never gave up, UM, never wavered. We just kept working,
Speaker 1: kept believing, UM, kept communicating with one another. And it
Speaker 1: sometimes it just takes time. You know. We talk about adversity,
Speaker 1: going through adversity, UM, and you know it just shows
Speaker 1: if you stick together, you lean on one another, you
Speaker 1: can do great things. So we got to keep doing
Speaker 1: that at all. I mean, nothing surprises me playing football. UM,
Speaker 1: you go through so many emotions. Uh, you get to
Speaker 1: see so many different things. I mean, you have so
Speaker 1: many different people coming together from different backgrounds to you know,
Speaker 1: achieve a common goal. UM. The key is, you know,
Speaker 1: how do you come together and face adversity with one another?
Speaker 1: And we've experienced that. But the beautiful thing about the
Speaker 1: Eagles is, you know we're able to bring everyone together
Speaker 1: and be on the same page to you know, really
Speaker 1: attack the adversity. When when we see adversity, we know
Speaker 1: what's going on. And then that's where we really lean
Speaker 1: on each other and keep going what you like. I mean,
Speaker 1: I honestly had no idea that I completed that mini
Speaker 1: in a row, and like I was just playing, like
Speaker 1: I say, play in the play and then uh, you know,
Speaker 1: later found out the one that I missed on was
Speaker 1: the one I double clutch and just through a horrible pass.
Speaker 1: But we scored the next play. Um, So it wasn't
Speaker 1: meant to be, UM, But I don't know, I was
Speaker 1: just in the zone. You know, started out early, you
Speaker 1: know early, pick a bad decision, ball got away. That's
Speaker 1: on me, UM. But that that's adversity that we talked about,
Speaker 1: and you know, we we just kept getting kept sticking together,
Speaker 1: kept communicating on the sidelines, and you know, ultimately we
Speaker 1: were able to put together a lot of great drives,
Speaker 1: a lot of long drives that you know, anytime you
Speaker 1: can hold the ball, keep marching, convert on third downs,
Speaker 1: convert on fourth down. Um, that's big for our team
Speaker 1: in our rhythm speaking, which if you're a part of
Speaker 1: the twelve minute drive, uh, I don't know, that was
Speaker 1: a long one. That was a really long one, and
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's not easy to do. UM. You know,
Speaker 1: the guys did a great job executing the plays. We
Speaker 1: kept you know, staying inside the chains. There wasn't a
Speaker 1: lot of huge plays on that drive, but we were
Speaker 1: able to execute when we needed to and ultimately allowed
Speaker 1: our defense to just rest and then you know, go
Speaker 1: down and score. Because yeah, I mean, the Eagles fans
Speaker 1: are unbelievable. Um. I've said it before. I know we're
Speaker 1: not at the link, but playing at the link, running
Speaker 1: out of the link is there's nothing like it. And
Speaker 1: then you know, you make the link, you make this
Speaker 1: the link. Today. Um, they were out there, they were
Speaker 1: a loud. Um. The support, I mean, the whole stadium
Speaker 1: was green. Um. And that's always huge. Um, it'll be
Speaker 1: it'll be big this week coming up. Our our fans
Speaker 1: give us such amazing support, and you know we love it.
Speaker 1: During the game when you want to be an how
Speaker 1: aware are you? Who are you up to score? In
Speaker 1: the other game, I wasn't really paying attention. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know they kept popping up, but I looked away.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to know. I didn't want to affect
Speaker 1: my you know, what was going on in our game. UM.
Speaker 1: I really wanted to stay focused on, you know, winning
Speaker 1: this game. You know, I didn't want to let them
Speaker 1: back in. Um. I thought, you know, the redskin defense,
Speaker 1: you know, that's who I was competing against. They were
Speaker 1: they they did a good job to night. They were playing,
Speaker 1: they were playing hard, they were showing different looks. Um,
Speaker 1: that's a that's a good defense. Uh not yet, UM,
Speaker 1: not right now. I'm just gonna sort of live in
Speaker 1: the moment right now. Um. Obviously they're great team. UM.
Speaker 1: I know coach Nagi, he's one of my favorite people
Speaker 1: in the world. When they hired him, I knew right
Speaker 1: away that he was going to be an outstanding hire.
Speaker 1: Um and he has been so. Once I get to
Speaker 1: film study them a little bit more. But I mean,
Speaker 1: I know that, you know, one of the best teams
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So it's gonna be a tall task.
Speaker 1: Will I think the thing that I always admire, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, and Dougs in this category, and Naggie's in
Speaker 1: this category. Um, Andy Reid, they're they're genuine like they
Speaker 1: are who they are. I mean, I went to training camp,
Speaker 1: you know, signed late to Kansas City, I went to
Speaker 1: get my physical um, and was dropped off at Naggie's house. UM,
Speaker 1: and I believe over them park because it was his
Speaker 1: off day and I had known him from my rookie year.
Speaker 1: I got to spend time with his family, hang out
Speaker 1: and then I drove back with him and I didn't
Speaker 1: have a car, so he let me use his car
Speaker 1: in training camp. Um, so I could get from place
Speaker 1: to place and he just rode with a coach. I
Speaker 1: mean that's who he is, and not only know as
Speaker 1: a person, but as a coach, he's unbelievable. Um. So
Speaker 1: I admire him. I'm proud of him. Um, it'll be
Speaker 1: fun to compete against him to keep you out of
Speaker 1: this oh it. You know, my plan is to get
Speaker 1: ready to roll. Um that's my plan. Obviously we still
Speaker 1: have to look into a lot of different things tomorrow,
Speaker 1: but um, you know I was. It's unfortunately I couldn't
Speaker 1: finish the game today, But you know I'm ready. You know,
Speaker 1: I want to get this thing going. I don't want
Speaker 1: to you know, I want to wear that jersey, you know,
Speaker 1: one more time and hopefully more. But you know, all
Speaker 1: we have guaranteed is you know this week. So um,
Speaker 1: once again, just standing in the moment and taking care
Speaker 1: of what I got to take care of now years
Speaker 1: bacially from a Meatles fan point, Now get back the playoffs,
Speaker 1: you said, from injuries and stuff. Um, I mean it's
Speaker 1: a resilient team. I think it goes from you know,
Speaker 1: leadership down. I mean that's what you know, creates the environment. Um.
Speaker 1: And when a guy's injured, you see guys you know
Speaker 1: rally around the new guy, and then they're even the
Speaker 1: guy who's injured is they're supporting. And we've seen that
Speaker 1: with this team, and that's something that's very special and
Speaker 1: you don't see everywhere. So UM, it's a it's a
Speaker 1: resilient group. Um. Like I said, I enjoy every day
Speaker 1: I get to go to the Novacare facility and work
Speaker 1: with every single person in that facility. UM. And I'm
Speaker 1: excited we were able to earn one more week of it.
Speaker 1: From last year's playoff experience, what would you try to
Speaker 1: implement into this year or anything? I think the big thing, Um,
Speaker 1: I learned a lot last year and I talked about
Speaker 1: to staying in the moment. Um. It's a big stage.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the playoffs. We're gonna go against one
Speaker 1: of the best teams in the NFL at their place. Um,
Speaker 1: it's a big stage. So just staying in the moment.
Speaker 1: Control what we can control, you know, not like I said,
Speaker 1: don't worry about the score, just play. Um, we have
Speaker 1: a lot of preparation coming up. So when I when
Speaker 1: I simplified things like that last year, it helped a
Speaker 1: lot and I've learned a lot more since. So, UM,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna, you know, pull on everything I know to
Speaker 1: get ready this week a playoff game. Could you have finish?
Speaker 1: I would do everything I can to get back out there.
Speaker 1: So it's a it's a it's a hypothetical question that
Speaker 1: I'm not going to answer, but it was a it
Speaker 1: was a very nice try. I thought that that's a
Speaker 1: less less usually would ask that question. But you know,
Speaker 1: it was good. But you know, you try to I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna you know, I'm gonna take care of business.
Speaker 1: Get ready. Um, it's sure, it's sore. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: and uh, but I'm like I said, I'm optimistic. I
Speaker 1: feel I feel like we'll get this thing situated. You know,
Speaker 1: my goal is to be out there and play. OK.
Speaker 1: Thank you,
