WEBVTT - Press Pass: Carson Wentz 0:00:07.640 --> 0:00:12.000 Right on. Understandable Carson will get a gain from the 0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:14.400 end of the game one Sunday to carry over relaying 0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:15.920 to get the two point or versus to get the 0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:18.079 drive down the field a bunch at the end zone. Yeah, 0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:19.840 for sure, that was huge for us. You know, we've 0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:22.400 been in this situation a number of times, you know, 0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:25.040 and to finally finish a drive the way we did 0:00:25.079 --> 0:00:27.159 and to finally get into the end zone, Um, that 0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:28.480 was big. You know, it was a step in the 0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:30.520 right direction. Unfortunately, you know, at the end of the day, 0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:32.720 we still lost. We came up short on the two 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.760 point player I thought we had it, But um, it 0:00:35.800 --> 0:00:37.320 was good for us to finally get a drive into 0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:39.160 the end zone. We just got to keep keep fighting 0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:42.639 and learning how to finish. I mean, what was kind 0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:44.519 of your reaction when he came back. Obviously it was 0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:47.520 a big loss. Yeah, it's exciting. You know. Obviously, Lanes 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:50.040 a heck of a player, heck of a um tackle 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:52.680 and he obviously helps me and does a lot, so, Um, 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:54.520 it's good to get him back and I'm excited to 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.680 finally get him back out there. Is obviously not the 0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:58.440 first time the guys have lost the close game or 0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:01.680 growing six now and want to score games that how 0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:04.720 much of it is just gaining experience in those types 0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:06.679 of games where you can win them. Yeah, you know, 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:10.960 obviously we're learning and we're getting those that experience. Um, 0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:13.040 but it's still frustrating, without a doubt. You know, we're 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:14.840 in all these close games to come up short time 0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:17.920 and time again. Um, you know that sucks. You know, 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.560 it's tough and um, there's there's things we keep saying 0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:22.200 we got to learn from. But at the end of 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:23.679 the day, we just we have to find a way 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:27.120 to win these ballgames. Having to play so quickly, I 0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:30.280 guess isn't something you've ever done before. How do you 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:33.160 prepare yourself physically and mentally to turn around and play 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:35.200 so fast here. Yeah, it's a different week. You know, 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:37.080 you don't have that that off day, you know, just 0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:39.120 to kind of relax and get your mind right. Um, 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:41.880 you're back in here right away, so um. You know, 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.440 Fortunately we've played the Giants before, We've already gone through 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:46.360 a week of preparation for them, so it's really just 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:49.120 kind of reviewing all that stuff. But I think physically 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:50.680 for a lot of guys, you know, you're taking a 0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:52.120 lot of hits, guys that are taking a lot of 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:55.040 reps um in the game. Um, you gotta just physically 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:56.800 get your body right. And that's the hardest part. It's 0:01:56.800 --> 0:02:00.760 such a routine guy and a schedule. Is this week 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:03.480 a challenge in that regard, Um a little bit, a 0:02:03.480 --> 0:02:05.760 little bit just because you know, I finally felt good 0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:08.000 about a routine and getting into that rhythm. But but 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:09.640 at the same time, it's kind of exciting. You know, 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:11.800 it's exciting to be on national TV, to be on 0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:14.440 Thursday night. It's something new, something different. Um, at this 0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:15.840 point of the year, it's it's kind of good to 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:18.320 kind of mix it up and change it. So, Um, 0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:20.799 it's been a quick week, but it's been a good week. 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:23.040 Was in the way you guys at that last game 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.639 with the Giants that obviously it didn't end the way 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:28.280 that you wanted to, but there were that last series 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:29.680 there was a lot going on. You got to hit 0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:32.799 in the head. Yeah. Yeah. The biggest thing I remember 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:34.880 is the last play. You know, we we came up 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.320 about a foot a foot short, just miss Jordan Um 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:39.840 and we thought we had one there, you know, we 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.200 thought we had one there. Um came up short. Much 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:45.080 like the story in a lot of these other games. Um, obviously, 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:47.160 I remember we started off slow. I started off, you know, 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:50.120 very slow. UM, kind of spotted them fourteen points, but 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:51.880 we battled, We stayed in the game, and we had 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:53.320 a chance to win at the end. You think that's 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.440 the biggest difference between the Giants and you right now? 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.600 I mean, going to that first game we broke, we 0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:00.160 were both four and three. They've lost one since, you've 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.640 won once since that game. Do you feel like they've 0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.800 just finished better? Is that the only difference in your mind? 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:08.840 You could probably say that right now. You know, obviously 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:10.840 they are finishing games better, and that's something that we're 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.240 still learning how to do. Um. I think that's one 0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:16.480 of the biggest things. Yeah, the turnarounds kind of a 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.120 nice thing after a way, you guys lose the last game, 0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:21.520 to have four days, Yeah, I would say, you know, 0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:24.519 coming in here right away Monday, UM, you know, tough 0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:27.440 emotional loss. That the way it was in Baltimore. UM, 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.080 to just be able to turn the script, you know, 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:31.440 flip the script and go forward, UM, it was probably 0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:33.280 a good thing, you know, to just turn the page 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:34.960 and go on to New York. I think it's been 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.920 a good thing in time of position, Carson, Why do 0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:40.720 you think you're not able to haven't been able to 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:44.080 maximize more of it in the points? So yeah, I 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:47.119 think a lot of it is just I mean, it 0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:50.680 varies there. You know, we have turnovers, we have some mistakes. Um, 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:52.360 I think a lot of it is just red zone football. 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:53.800 You know. I think we struggle once are down there. 0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:56.160 That's something that we gotta keep getting better at, keep 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:57.960 getting better at learning how to finish drives. You know, 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:00.480 we do a good job of sustaining long drives, but 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:02.560 sometimes we just gotta learn how to finish because coming 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.400 away with three points and in some cases zero points, Um, 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.520 it's tough. You know, it's tough to So we got 0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.400 to find a way to get some big plays and 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:12.360 be um capitalize on those long drives. To state where 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:14.040 you guys much of a ball control team or do 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:17.240 you quick straight? We're big, big on ball control as well. 0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:20.679 That Giant's defense is playing well in these past few weeks. 0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:23.279 What's sticking out on film? They're good, you know, they're good. 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.279 They like to heat you up, they like to mix 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:27.520 it up quite a bit. Cover zero is a big thing. 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:30.680 They like to do, so, um, we gotta be ready 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:32.680 for that. We gotta be ready for um a lot 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:35.599 of different blitz blitz looks. We gotta know where twenty 0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:37.520 one landing Collins is. He's all over the field, he 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:39.840 flies around, so, um, you know, we just gotta be 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:42.839 aware where, be aware of where he's at, and be 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.720 ready for some of that stuff they did for the 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.640 first game. Very similar, still doing much of the same stuff, 0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:50.120 you know, but you know, even the first game, they 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:51.760 look good. You know, they look good, they fly around, 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.840 So we just got to execute. I think it's like 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.039 half of your interceptions, I think six or thirteen have 0:04:57.080 --> 0:05:00.240 come in the first quarter. Is there a common thread there? 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.800 Is it maybe trying to do too much too road? Um? 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:04.760 I think everyone's just kind of case by case, you know, 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.440 they're all they're all different. Um. So I wouldn't say 0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:09.440 it's really anything to do with that, but it's just 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:11.240 kind of the way it's been. It's a fault to 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:15.000 that in most of these games, and including the fast one, 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:19.120 you've been able to rebound from those. Uh. Is there 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.719 a key to that in terms of not letting it 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:23.479 affect you throughout the rest of the game. Yeah, I 0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:26.640 think it's the biggest thing to be successful in this league. 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:28.080 You just have to short term memory, you know, you 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:30.719 gotta be able to block out mistakes. You know, good things, 0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:32.280 bad things, whatever. You just gotta be able to press 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:34.679 on and go forward with it. Um And that's something 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:36.039 you know, I like to pride myself on. You know, 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:37.880 mistakes are gonna happen, there's gonna be good plays, but 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:43.320 you're always just learning and going on to the next Thanks. 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:53.040 Thanks everybody.
