1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,920
Speaker 1: What a great time to be a Giant and be

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: a fan of the Giants. UM so happy and proud

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: of of the defense and the way we played in Minnesota.

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: The two fourth down or the two fourth quarter start

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: stops at the end of the game. Uh, it was

6
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: just great to see. And it's you know, I tell

7
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: you guys all the time about how how much I

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: care about this these guys and how how close they

9
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: are and selfless they are. And you saw that Sunday

10
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: in that game with all those players, whatever they had

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:35,959
Speaker 1: to do to win the game, and that's what they did.

12
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: So that will open her up to question shut down Jefferson?

13
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: Can you shut down Smith and Brown? That's tough. You know,

14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: the more there are, the tougher is. I think they've

15
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: got six So they got six Pro bowlers on the

16
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 1: offense and probably three snubs. Um. Yeah, I mean this

17
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: is a talented group we're getting ready to face, and uh,

18
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's going to be a challenge for

19
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: us from meeting. It's the vikings where were Jefferson was

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: kind of able to get off a little bit in

21
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: the I think that's a few things that I think

22
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 1: that it's you know, we we came at full strength finally,

23
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: and it was a total team effort, you know, to

24
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: be able to do that and and you know, play

25
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: some different coverages to try to take him away, and

26
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: the way the guys rushed up front, and you know,

27
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: what you can't forget is what the other guys are

28
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: doing when you're double on a receiver or you're moving

29
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: coverage over the top of them. The other guys are

30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: winning there one on one situations as well. You know,

31
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: Faith had a great game the entire time, and you

32
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: saw a flock come in and have the big pass

33
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: break up on third down. I'm just so proud of

34
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: them because the work and concentration and execution and studying

35
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: and you know, all the things that they have done

36
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: is paid off for him. And you know that's rookie

37
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: or you know, a veteran that hasn't played in the

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: UH in a playoff game yet, like Leo, I mean,

39
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: I thought he played lights out. You know, the guys

40
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: up front played lights out, obviously, Dex. You saw what

41
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: he did. He took the game over in that last

42
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: series of the fourth quarter. And when you when you

43
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 1: have guys playing like that, it's a it's a lot

44
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: of fun to watch. You didn't complain when all these

45
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: guys you didn't like it, but you just kept going.

46
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: But the first game against the Eagles, he was no McKinney,

47
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: there was no door. No, you know, do you think

48
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: the Eagles are really seen what this defense is all about?

49
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: Yet I didn't complain to you. My wife, on the

50
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: other hand, Lawrence, she heard some complaints. No, you know,

51
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: I it's a we'll wait and see, you know, with

52
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: you know how they view us. I just I'm worried

53
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: about how we view ourselves and going to win this game.

54
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: You know, it's uh, it's in the long run now

55
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: at the end of it, going in you know, being

56
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, what has done has helped prepare our

57
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,399
Speaker 1: younger guys, you know, like Dane coming in the game.

58
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: Uh didn't flinch and and play three different spots that

59
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: you know, because I told you it's a position of

60
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: his defense. He's you know, credit to him in the

61
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: way he studies the game, and he studies our package

62
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: and their package, and he execute executed falsely. And you know,

63
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: credit to Rome and and Mike the way that he

64
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: has all those guys prepared. How much can you do

65
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: differently add to it. I mean, like Trick McKinney talked

66
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 1: about being dropped into the box in the second half

67
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: there more and like that. How much more flexibility as

68
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: a coordinator does it give you to have him and

69
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: the Doory specifically back. I mean, the more players you have,

70
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: the better it is. And you can be flexible that way.

71
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: And you know that was an adjustment that we've made,

72
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: you know, as part of our CounterPunch there at the

73
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: end with uh, you know putting X. You know that's

74
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: somebody I didn't bring up. He played fantastic. Um. I

75
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: mean he ran ran the post route for Justin Jefferson

76
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: on that long bow that you guys were all telling

77
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: me it was offensive pass interference, but I can't comment

78
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: on it. Um, how did how did end up in

79
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: that spot? Uh? Faith needed to blow you know, so yeah,

80
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: so he would you know, he just went right out

81
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: on the field. I mean there was no hesitation, no nothing.

82
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: It's just because they've they've been rotating before. No, they'll

83
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: still rotate in this game. I mean, flots come a

84
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: long way, and I'm really happy to see it from

85
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: your regular season finale when he was out there battle

86
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 1: I mean I think that any experience people gain and

87
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: h you know, he'd have to ask him that probably,

88
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: But I just know that he's playing good football for us.

89
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: A quarterback who was really a pocket quarterback. Right this week,

90
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: you've got the guy who's got wheels. How much different

91
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: is how much were challenges to stop hurt? I mean,

92
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: he can you know, everybody's saying he's having an m

93
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 1: VP season, and I agree, because he can beat you

94
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: with his legs. He can beat you just being a

95
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: drop back quarterback. He can beat you with a social

96
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: sore shoulder, you know. I mean, he can beat you

97
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: a lot of different ways, and and that's a great

98
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: challenge because you know, there's there's a few, you know,

99
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 1: just a few quarterbacks that can do it that way.

100
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, you can have him dead rights

101
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: back here in the pocket and he's he's a magician.

102
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 1: He'll get out of it. And I just really, you know,

103
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: I'm not happy for the guy right now because I'm

104
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: preparing for him, but you can see the work that

105
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: he put in the past offseason and where he's at

106
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: today is to me as two completely different quarterbacks. And uh,

107
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: you know, I you know, out of respect of the game.

108
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: You you respect that that you can see the hard

109
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 1: work that he put in. So it's gonna be a

110
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: tremendous challenge team Just un till now how much the

111
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: different quarterback respect. They look like they were obviously using

112
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: him differently in that game. Well, I mean yeah, I

113
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: mean he's off the end your report. So I'm expecting

114
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: Jayalen hurts the m v P Canada. And I think

115
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: if you expect anything less, your kidding yourself, because you know,

116
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: the guys definitely a competitor. Did approach that game because

117
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: obviously you're playing to win, but you didn't have your

118
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: full personality. Did you hold anything back or you like,

119
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 1: did you have to do things differently? You just call it.

120
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: We were trying to win the game. The thing you're

121
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: called a Dorian and all those guys are out there

122
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: maybe you know, I you know, it's it's it's one

123
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: of those things that gets into the you know, qunchy CounterPunch.

124
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: You know, the same thing we gave the Vikings was

125
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: a CounterPunch, something that they weren't you ready for? And

126
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: uh so I think you do the same thing when

127
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: you're playing opponent. And now this is the third time

128
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: we played him, so we know them, they know us.

129
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fun football game. The Dory Jackson

130
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: to be away for seven weeks to jump back into

131
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: the building to draw us justin Jeffersons right, Well, you

132
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: know he shadowed him the whole game, and you know

133
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: that's the beginning of the team effort, you know, besides

134
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: you know, the rush and the other guys holding up

135
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 1: and everything else. I am. I'm happy for the player

136
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: the same same reason when I told you all before,

137
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: and maybe you weren't here, as you know, I'm happy

138
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: for the person because he's worked his tail off. It's

139
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: it's fun seeing him smile out on the field again.

140
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: And he's a number one corner, So it was it

141
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: was huge for him to come back. It was. It

142
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: was a big reason. It builds confidence in your entire

143
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: defense and your coordinator. Uh, you know when you have

144
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: him out on the field. And I was really happy

145
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: for him. This is something that your arrival here. But

146
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: what why has Boston Scott been able to basically be

147
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer against the Giants? Well, if it's

148
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: it predates my time here, I can't I can't answer that,

149
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: you know, I mean he's a good running back. They

150
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: got a stable of good running backs, you know. So

151
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: you know I can't I can't answer, well, he see,

152
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: I mean he scored against you guys. Yeah, I mean

153
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: I know, just because he scored, I don't think he's

154
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:13,280
