1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,720 Speaker 1: See on your thoughts on the Giants Jets rivalry. 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, uh, it's a great rivalry. It's so 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 2: it was a it was a fun game to play against, 4 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 2: playing team like that. Uh. Two teams in the same area, sure, 5 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 2: same stadium, bragging rights for a long time till the 6 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 2: next time they see each other. Uh. I'm excited, definitely excited. 7 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: Uh for me personally, I didn't really have to to 8 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 2: a greater game last my I went against these guys, 9 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 2: So I'll see that was years and years and years ago, 10 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 2: but that's still waste having my mind and I get 11 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: opportunity to go out there against a really good team, 12 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: a really good defense, and they're playing really well, touon 13 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: a high level, and try to continue to get this 14 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:40,959 Speaker 2: winning streat going. 15 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: It is the lowest rushing total you ever had, So 16 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: is that something that sits with you. 17 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 3: A little bit? 18 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: Uh? 19 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't really don't think about it 20 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: too much. I was sitting down in my house and 21 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 2: my brother, my little brother, definitely reminded me about it, 22 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 2: made a little joke about it, and that's when it 23 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: was like, dang, I really had one rushing yard against 24 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: this team. But at that moment I was. Probably it 25 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: was before I ever you know, I had an ACL 26 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 2: or anything like that. Probably the lowest moment and I 27 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,919 Speaker 2: had as a as a player. But I like to respond. 28 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: I think in the next couple of weeks I played 29 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 2: pretty well, and I think I had one of my 30 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: better games two or three weeks after that, So you 31 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: learn from it. I'm not the only back there's ever 32 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: been a part of a game like that. I remember 33 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: seeing a stat of Barry Sanders in the playoff game 34 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 2: having like sixteen carrios for zill yards. But like I said, 35 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: there's years pass a new team. But I'm just excited 36 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: for the opportunity to go against that team and know 37 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: a couple of those guys over there and how competitive 38 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: they are and how challenging they are, especially the deefen 39 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: side of the ball. So it's gonna be fun. 40 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: Even years further back, can you remember rooting for the 41 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: Jets against the Giants. 42 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: As a kid, Yeah, I definitely remember that obviously. You know, 43 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: some people are familiar with my history of being a 44 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: Jets fan growing up. My dad being a real big 45 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: Jets fan, having a Jets tattoo finally got him to 46 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: he's still room for the Jets this game. But he 47 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: helps he helps we win this time. So I got 48 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 2: him to say that out of his own mouth two 49 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 2: or three days ago. So I finally got my father 50 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 2: on my side. 51 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 3: You've had plenty of games where the running back on 52 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 3: the other team has gotten accolades as well. And I 53 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 3: think of your battles with with Zeke in Dallas, and 54 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 3: we always talked about you know, I know you're not 55 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 3: going against Breese Hall, but I'm sure you have respect 56 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 3: for him as a player. Is that ramping up anymore 57 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 3: for you knowing that another running back on the field 58 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 3: is going to get a lot of attention? 59 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean you never you're not technically going against 60 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: the running back. You know, I'm not on defense. He's 61 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: not a defense. I can't stop him, he can't stop me. 62 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: But anytime you're going against the running back of that caliber, obviously, Uh, yes, 63 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: it increases a little more to competitive nature. Whether it's 64 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: a Christian, whether it's a Derrick Henry, Well, it's a 65 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: Bree And I got a nothing but respect for Brees especially, Uh, 66 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 2: you know the injury that he dealt with. I talked 67 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 2: to him a little bit during it obviously we had 68 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 2: similar injuries, but the way he's able to respond, bounce 69 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: back after it, in the way he the level that 70 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: he's playing with, So tip my hats off to him. 71 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: He's a great back and it's gonna be fun to 72 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: see him live in person. Hopefully he don't have as 73 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: much success he's been having so far in the season, 74 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: and our defense do what they have to do, and 75 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 2: I can do what I need to do for offense 76 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: to help us get a win. 77 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: Sick one, I came a little forget me a for 78 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: your ask. 79 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: That's ready. 80 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: But the Jets defense, you know, what do you make 81 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: of their play this season? 82 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 3: Obviously they were comments preseason about them historically, Uh, what 83 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 3: are your thoughts on them? 84 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: So far? Fast, physical, fly to the ball, creates turnovers. 85 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: They can get to the quarterback all three levels was 86 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: the d line, was the linebackers, was the dbs. We 87 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: have talented players, so it's gonna be tough challenge and 88 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: they're fun. They're fun to watch, you know, just being 89 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 2: a fan and game watching film with them, you know, 90 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: trying to learn them and get ready for them and 91 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 2: seeing the way they play. You gotta admire, you gotta 92 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: have respect for uh what they're doing over there. So 93 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: it's gonna be fun, it's gona be challenging as competitors, 94 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: the type of games you want to be part of. 95 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 3: We were kids, I would assume that rivalries where I 96 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 3: hate these guys, blah blah blah. Is it now all 97 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 3: about winning? 98 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess, uh yeah, every game. That's the that's 99 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: the mindset to come out and win. Every game is important. 100 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna sit here and lie and be like, okay, 101 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: like I don't I don't really see. I don't have 102 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 2: vivary games in my head. That's not how I really 103 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: look at it. But I'm not gonna sit there and 104 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 2: say like, okay, like it's New York Johns, New York Jets, 105 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 2: Like you know, there's definitely, you know, a little more 106 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: something to the game. I felt that last time I 107 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: played in it, and you know, we end up losing 108 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 2: in a really close game, but you can just feel 109 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: the atmosphere the fans that were there. But yeah, at 110 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: the end of the day, all you want to do 111 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: is win, and that's our goal. We won't come out 112 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: here and do what we can uh conpee at high 113 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: level and to come out with a win, it's gonna 114 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 2: be a tough challenge because they're really good team over here. 115 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 3: A week ago, you guys were still confident that you 116 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 3: could turn the season into what you wanted it to, 117 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: but you still needed that first one. You got that 118 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: first one. Now, that first win after streak. Does it 119 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 3: feel any differently in this locker room right now that 120 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: you guys are ready to. 121 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: Turn it over. 122 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think it's we're not in here like, oh, 123 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 2: we're five and two. We still understand that we're two 124 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: and five and we got a long way to go. 125 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: But I don't think we needed to win last week. 126 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 2: I think I kind of sat here and said that 127 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: a game like Buffalo, we felt like we should have 128 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 2: won that game. Unfortunately we came out with you in 129 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 2: and win that game. But games like that, going as 130 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 2: a really good team in a tough environment can help 131 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 2: build a confidence, can help be that spark, And I 132 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: feel like that's what it was we left allowed on 133 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: the table last week against Washington, who's a really good team, 134 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 2: but we found ways to win games. Kind of got 135 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: back to the kind of mindset and kind of team 136 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 2: you were last year, and that's what we got to 137 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: continue to do believe in each other, to play common 138 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: way football and do whatever it takes gritty wins, find 139 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 2: way to win games. 140 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: You mentioned rivalry, that is this the closest thing you're 141 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: getting nothing embarrassed to a college drivalry? Is this the 142 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: closest you'll get to like what a college rivalry is 143 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: in the NFL? 144 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 2: Uh, I don't know. 145 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. 146 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 2: Defen State, we really didn't have one. I guess we 147 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 2: kind of developed one a little bit when I was there. Well, 148 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 2: all Ohio State Pittsburgh claims they are. I guess, uh, 149 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: but I don't know. I really don't. I really don't 150 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 2: feel it that. I can't use an example whether in college, 151 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 2: I can't tell you the divisional games were play in, 152 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 2: whether it's Washington, whether it's Dallas. So well, it's Philly 153 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 2: upset a little bit. And I can tell you being 154 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 2: part of the playoff games, how how much the level 155 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: increases and the speech increases. So I expect that to 156 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 2: happen this week, just already just off a matter of 157 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 2: fact of how good they are and how fast they 158 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 2: play over there on defense side of the ball. So it's 159 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: gonna be fun. It's gonna be fun opportunity. We got 160 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: to go out there and be ready because they're don't 161 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: give it. Give us the best. 162 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: The open field touchdown last week, how good did that field? 163 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: Or just show you broke the tackle you cut back 164 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: across the field, just to show like you have all 165 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: your abilities back after the injury. 166 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not know, that's all there. I think if 167 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 2: you if you can watch film, you go go watch it. Everything. 168 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: It's all still there. It's still a high ankle. You know, 169 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: it's still challenging. But you know, I felt really comfortable 170 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: in the game. If you watch, like you know, some 171 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: of my runs they only might have went for four 172 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 2: or five yards, but I felt like I was shifty. 173 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: I was able to make the cuts that need to 174 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 2: be made, set up alignment a little bit. So I'm excited. 175 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 2: Just keep stacking and keep building off it, keep rehabing it, 176 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: and get better. Tweak
