12
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: coach of the Giants, Pat Shermer, he spoke to the

13
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 1: media on Wednesday about the Giants change a quarterback. Obviously,

14
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: the topic of conversation yesterday was the quarterback switch. Um,

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: you know, I talked to all the parties involved yesterday morning,

16
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: and then he quickly got back to work and did

17
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 1: Monday things, Um, excuse me, Tuesday things where they were

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: getting ready for the week, and so we have a

19
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: switch and rolls. But it should come as no surprise

20
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: to anybody that That's been a great relationship since the

21
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,839
Speaker 1: day we drafted Daniel. They've both helped each other. They're

22
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: both preparing to play if they have to play, and

23
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: they both assist each other whoever the one is playing.

24
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: And I think that's what we can expect from Eli. Uh.

25
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: You know when you're when you're talking about um people

26
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: and emotions and those conversations. I'm gonna keep that between

27
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: me certainly, an Eli, Um, you can go back on

28
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: any pressure I've done, and you know, find the words

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: that I've said about him all along and that hasn't changed.

30
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: So that's where we're at. Daniels our starter, uh, Eli

31
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: will back them up and we're moving forward. So with that,

32
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: I'll take your questions. Daniel Jones is the better quarterback

33
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: right now? Daniel Jones is ready to play and we're

34
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: going with him. Yes. And the reason I say that

35
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: is because we do everything we can to win football

36
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: games and at this point we feel like he's the

37
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: guy we want to move forward with. Did you them

38
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: to that decision? And what what? What? What did you

39
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: factor into I've been thinking about all this, you know,

40
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: I think about all this stuff all the time. But

41
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: when the game was over, you know, and again it's

42
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: it's not all about Eli. It's about there. There's other

43
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: factors involved, you know, our team, where we're at and

44
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: moving forward. But you know, certainly the most of the

45
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: thought for me, um happened after the game. What makes

46
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: now the right time? Because there's certainly a school about

47
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: that if you brought Eli Manning back, and you paid

48
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: Eli Manning give me the starting quarterback, that two games

49
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: isn't enough of a window type. You know what I

50
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: don't I don't see that. I don't understand that narrative,

51
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: because you know, Daniel Jones is going to have the

52
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: benefit of to start here fourteen games of a guy

53
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: that's done it. I mean, this guy is what a

54
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: giant exemplifies, not only as a player but as a person,

55
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 1: and he's going to have the benefit of this guy's

56
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: assistance as we go through it. So my gut told

57
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: me it was the right time. But that narrative that

58
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: you don't bring Eli back, you know, I think that's

59
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 1: just something for us all to talk about. Who had

60
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: to sign off from them on this decision. Well, I

61
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: certainly made the decision, and I had the conversation with

62
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: all the parties involved um and at some point they

63
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: said are you sure? And I said, yeah, I'm sure.

64
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: Dave and John absolutely you don't. You don't do these

65
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: things without talking to the people that you just mentioned

66
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: and Steve and and so on. Do you believe that

67
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: the that the move could jump start this football team? Listen,

68
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: we're trying to win a football game, and we feel

69
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: like along the way here, Daniel Jones has showed us

70
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: that when he gets his opportunities, gonna play well. And

71
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: that's what that's where we're at. Obviously, you gotts drafted

72
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: him six, so you you liked them a lot, But

73
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: did anything you do from the day you drafted him

74
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: until I guess yesterday in your mind say you know what,

75
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: this is faster that he's more ready than maybe I

76
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: thought that, you know, we can put him in week

77
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: three as opposed to you know, waiting longer. Well, we're

78
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: gonna see. I mean, he's gonna play in his first

79
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: regular season game Sunday against Tampa at four o'clock, and

80
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: so we'll see. But to this point, I think it's

81
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: safe to say in our minds, he's checked off all

82
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: the boxes and everything that we've asked him to do. Um,

83
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: and so we'll get him ready to play, put a

84
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: plan together that he can utilize, and we'll go to work.

85
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: The best quarterback gave you the best chance to win.

86
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: You said that all summer, you said that. Right now

87
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: you think Daniel was that guy? Um? What changed from

88
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 1: you know, Week four, the preseason two Tuesday that Jones

89
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: jumped Eli? What did you see that made this? I

90
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: think it's just was my gut that was time to

91
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: make that move. I think when you draft a guy

92
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: like you know, when you draft a guy like we

93
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: did at some point and that was part you know,

94
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: that was part of my conversation. At some point this

95
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: was gonna happen, and I just felt like this was

96
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: the time expect Eli to be with this organization through

97
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: the end of the season. There have been some speculation

98
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: and maybe he would. What are your thoughts on Based

99
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: on what I heard yesterday and based on what I

100
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: saw today, he's doing everything in his power to be

101
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: ready to play if he has to go in, and

102
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,919
Speaker 1: he's doing everything in his power to help Daniel get

103
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: get ready. And I don't foresee anything that would make

104
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: me think he won't be here. Usually when the team

105
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: goes to a younger quarterback, they try to trim the

106
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: play up a little bit. In this case, this Daniel

107
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 1: will open up things that maybe you weren't able to

108
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: touch with because no, I think there's certain plays and again,

109
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: you you try to run plays against the team you're

110
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: gonna face. Um, you know, we did some things against

111
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: Buffalo that we weren't be able to We didn't take

112
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: full advantage of that would have helped us win that

113
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 1: football game. Um, every play that goes in, you know,

114
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback that's running that play has a little different

115
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 1: interpretation of it and his eyes will go somewhere place,

116
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: sometimes slower quicker than others. And so uh, to answer

117
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: your question, he's got the ability to run our full

118
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: offense pretty much the same. Yeah, I mean it should

119
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 1: look the same. I mean schematically, I'll let the changes

120
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 1: in tactics revealed themselves, so to speak. Um, but we

121
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 1: want to get more we want to want to score

122
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: more points, and I think that's what we're looking for

123
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: looking for We're looking for better results. If that's sir,

124
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: had I understand your day to day, week to week,

125
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: you're the head coach of this football team. But in

126
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: terms of speaking with Eli yesterday. Were you at all

127
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: struck by the weightiness of that moment of what he

128
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 1: has been here, what he has represented here, and that

129
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: he may have taken his final snap at least as

130
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 1: a starting quarterback for this organization. Yeah, I'm well aware

131
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: of all that, and you know, but those were you know,

132
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: we were two guys talking. They had a good relationship,

133
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: you know, and I think you know, I've said it

134
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 1: all along. You know, he lies closer to forty than

135
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: he is twenty, you know. Um, And so that's how

136
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: it all started. I sort of knew what I wanted

137
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: to say when he walked in yesterday morning, but it

138
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: kind of changed on the you know, changed on the

139
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: run for me because just the naturalness of two people

140
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:21,559
Speaker 1: talking and he quickly left and got to work doing

141
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: Tuesday things and so, um, that's just the way it goes.

142
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: More emotional than you during the conversation, I think it

143
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: was equal. You've also said that in test that you

144
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: thought he had years remaining. Um, has anything you've seen

145
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: these first two weeks changed your thought on if he

146
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: does stud he wants to play, how long he can play? Yeah,

147
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: I think he can play in this league. But you know,

148
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: as as i've as as I did yesterday. We're making

149
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: a change here for us moving forward. Other things that

150
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: you have seen in practice, you know, we don't get

151
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: the benefit of seen practice now and from you and

152
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: your coaches eyes see from Daniel that convinces you that

153
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: he can make this transition, absolutely, because the bulk of

154
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: his work, in our eyes, happens behind the scenes, just

155
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: like the bulk of all of our work happens behind

156
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: the scenes. You know. You know, when I walked to

157
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: the stadium at whatever time on Sunday, right, I don't

158
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is, two hours or three

159
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: hours before the game. I was still here at the

160
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: building at five thirty drinking coffee. So that's just an

161
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: example of what we do is really behind the scenes.

162
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: And I think that's what we are um doing as

163
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: coaches and as players, and then we evaluate it. We

164
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: put the guys out there and we go play. Do

165
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: you think do you think having Ely on the headsets

166
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: in Tampa on Sunday? You know, with you and you

167
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: know helping Daniel will be a uniquely um different advantage

168
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: because not many sixteen year quarterbacks are on the headsets

169
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: and regular season games like that we've started last week. Yeah,

170
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 1: I think it's it's terrific. Um. I'm trying to answer

171
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: your question because I don't see the awkwardness to that

172
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: or the advantage of the disadvantage I see here, here's

173
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: a guy that knows what he's doing, knows our offense,

174
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: and if we have one ankle injuries in there, so

175
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: it's just a matter of and then when Daniel comes off,

176
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: they're going to discuss what's happened as we move forward,

177
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: just like we would normally do. He can give a

178
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: different perspective than Alex Tanney, both equally as good. I've

179
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: always been conscious of the locker room absolutely what kind

180
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: of message you said did you separate from the quarterbacks?

181
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: Have to talk to the team in generalist to why

182
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 1: you were making the move, and can you share with

183
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: with us why you assume you were confident that they

184
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: would embrace Daniel the same way they embraced In some

185
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: ways this decision was separate, but in many ways it

186
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: was connected. And and the reason I say that is

187
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: we're all connected and what happens, and we haven't done

188
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: anything well enough to win the first two games, so

189
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: they're well aware of the fact that everybody in the

190
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: room has to do what they do better. So yes,

191
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: I did have that conversation with them. You feel like

192
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: this team believes the same as you do, that you

193
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: are moving forward with Daniel to win a football game.

194
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: That this isn't throwing up a flag and saying we're

195
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: on to absolutely I again, that's that's that's a narrative

196
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: that I don't understand. You know, we're onto playing Tampa Bay.

197
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to steal somebody else's face, but we're

198
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: onto playing Tampa Bay and that's where our focus is

199
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: in the two thousand nineteen season, that's where we're at.

200
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: We all realize there's a lot of football left to play,

201
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 1: and you can see the uncertainty that a team faces

202
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: each week, and you know, a little juice you win

203
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: a football game. Who knows what's going to happen and

204
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: what you The notion that that some of your form

205
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 1: something this organization's former players have raised, at least that

206
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: ELI is being scapegoated for problems in the first two

207
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 1: games that really weren't useful for the defense. We've had shortcomings,

208
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: that you were short at receiver. What do you say

209
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: to the notion that this is an scapegoad. Well, I

210
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: think I just answered that notion when I when I talked,

211
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: when I spoke to Art's question, that none of us

212
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: have done what we need to do to win two games.

213
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: So that's what I would say about that notion. I

214
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: don't believe in the scapegoat thing. Put that was halftime adjustments.

215
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: You adjust as you go. How difficult did Daniel make

216
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: the decision going into the regular season, because obviously what

217
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: he did in the preseason. Was there ever a thought

218
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: that you know, this kid is ready now or what

219
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: did you just have to see something in the first

220
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Well, I'm just gonna go back to

221
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: what I said all along, and I believe my words,

222
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: and some folks didn't that Eli was our starter and

223
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: we were moving forward getting Daniel ready to play. And

224
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: that's how that's how we are of the year, with

225
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: the idea that we were going to go out and

226
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: win our first two games. It's just that simple. By now,

227
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: everybody should understand. I try to keep these kind of

228
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: things simple. I think trying to confuse the issues here

229
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: is you know, not good. What should the fans expect

230
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 1: from Daniel Jones in your mind. He's a young competitive

231
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: guy that's going to fight, and I think he's going

232
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 1: to display the toughness, the skill and ability that that

233
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:35,359
Speaker 1: we saw when we drafted him. Significant changes, your significant changes, um,

234
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: not that, not that I know of, um, UM generally speaking? Yeah,

235
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: what were the qualities or was there a moment where

236
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: it clicked for you when you told us Daniel is ready?

237
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: What did he do that then tipped you to the

238
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: point where you said, hey, when we need him, he

239
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: can go. What did he do had we needed him

240
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: in the first two games, he could have gone. So

241
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: I feel like he's ready to go, and everybody around

242
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,959
Speaker 1: him is gonna do what they can to support his efforts.

243
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: It's Monday, did you know? But out of respect for

244
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: the principles, you didn't tell us Monday because Tuesday had

245
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 1: become with the conversations. You know, this is this is

246
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: about respect too, you know, I think and I hold

247
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: this organization in high regard, and we're always about respect.

248
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: And so where we were we frowned sometimes is when um,

249
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna find a way to start winning

250
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: games right and and earn the respect of winning. But

251
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: behind the scenes were about respect and so I wanted

252
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: to make sure I went through this process the right way.

253
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna I'm gonna hang on that word. That's giants,

254
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: say coach Pat Charmer. Now. Daniel Jones, who faced the

255
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: media later in the day, got the news if you

256
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,079
Speaker 1: starting on Sunday, Um, you know, I was. I was excited.

257
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 1: I think, you know, certainly, um excited for the opportunity.

258
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: Um you know, coach coach called me up to his office.

259
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: We we had that conversation and and uh you know,

260
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: obviously uh a unique circumstance and and um you know,

261
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: but but excited for the opportunity, ready for the opportunity. Yeah,

262
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: I mean I think, uh you know, I certainly feel

263
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: I feel good about um you know, how far I've come,

264
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: um you know, in my preparation, in my progress since

265
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: um you know, since I got here in the spring,

266
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: and uh you know, through camp, through these first couple

267
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: of weeks. So um you know you you uh well,

268
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: uh you know, try to make sure we have the

269
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: best week we can and you know, I'll certainly do

270
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: all I can to be as as prepared as possible.

271
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: But um yeah, I think, uh you know, I feel

272
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: ready and uh you know, certainly looking forward, the opportunity

273
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 1: can starting quarterback and tails a lot more than just

274
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: calling the hutle and everything. I mean, did you did

275
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: you address the team or did you talk to talk

276
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: to them or the offense at all today? Um? I didn't,

277
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: uh not not as a group. You know, I've certainly

278
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: had a number of conversations and and um yeah, I

279
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: mean I think, uh you know, like like I said,

280
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: our job is to focus on Tampa Bay to make

281
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: sure we're as prepared as possible. We're just talking to

282
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: Eli since the change happened. Um you know, I mean

283
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: I think, uh, you know, yesterday when uh you know,

284
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: when Coach Rummer told me and and you know, obviously

285
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: Eli as well. I think, um, you know, we had

286
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: a conversation and and U as y'all would expect, as

287
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: anyone who knows Eli would expect. He was, um, you know,

288
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: nothing but supportive of me. And obviously you know, I

289
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: understand the the circumstance and it's a you know, a

290
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: difficult one, but he's, uh you know, it was very

291
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: supportive of me. And and uh you know, I can't

292
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 1: say enough about about who he is, um you know,

293
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: as a person, as a teammate, and UM, you know

294
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: he's been that way since I've since I've gotten here,

295
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: so UM, you know we we uh we had that

296
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: conversation and then we went about our our Tuesday preparing

297
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: and watching film like um like we have um you know,

298
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: the first two weeks. So UM, you know, I'm certainly

299
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: certainly very very grateful and appreciative of um of his support,

300
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: UM since I've gotten here. You know, just to clarify,

301
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: you had the conversation with Eli and coach are separately,

302
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: the coach and then he had a separate conversation Fla separately. Also, UM,

303
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: you know, I think, uh, you never you never really

304
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: know when something like this is is uh is gonna

305
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: happen and and uh my job is you know, it

306
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: was to be ready and to uh continue to improve,

307
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: and UM you know I think, um yeah, so you

308
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: know I feel like I've I've been able to do that.

309
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: Like I said, you you you don't know when when

310
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: uh something like this can happen. I can't you know,

311
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: can't control that. So UM, just just trying to be

312
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: prepared and uh we'll continue to prepare obviously the same

313
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: way this week. Are you want to walk to you

314
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: any advice. UM, I mean I think, uh through the week.

315
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: I think you know, his his uh help through the

316
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: through the preparation. I think it is uh is you know,

317
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: certainly valuable to me, very valuable to me. I think,

318
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: um in terms of general advice, I mean, I think

319
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 1: his support and his UM you know, his confidence in

320
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 1: me is is UM. You know, it's kind of it

321
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: feels uh you know, give you the confidence that you know,

322
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: the the support that way, you know, if you feel

323
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: feel comfortable on that, what tells you dai, what tells

324
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: you that you will be ready? Um? I mean I think, uh,

325
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I think that you know,

326
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 1: I haven't played a regular season game. I'm certainly aware

327
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 1: of that, you know what. What you know, all I

328
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: can do is prepare um as hard as I possibly can.

329
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: And that's what I'll do. I think, UM, you know,

330
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,239
Speaker 1: I've gotten some sense of that in the preseason, and

331
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: certainly it will be UM you know, it'll be elevated

332
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 1: during during the regular season. So all I can do

333
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: this week is making sure UM you know, I'm prepared,

334
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: the team is prepared, and and UM I do I

335
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: do all I possibly can. The responsibility of being the

336
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: starting quarterback for the New York Giants. Do you look

337
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: at that in anyways something daunting or do you feel

338
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: you're ready to embrace it. I feel like I'm ready

339
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: to embrace it. I think, um, you know, I think

340
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: focusing on on what we're doing here, focusing on what

341
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 1: we're doing in the building and our preparation, um, you know,

342
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: with my teammates, with my coaches, I think, um, you know,

343
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 1: kind of uh naring that focus to to uh to

344
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: be in here in the moment and and uh in

345
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: in the uh you know, this week. I think it

346
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: is is important with that, so um you know, certainly,

347
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: uh you know, feel like I I can embrace that

348
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: and looking forward to the opportunity. One of the reason

349
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: the Giants drafted do is because they thought you could

350
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: handle this moment and the pressure that comes with playing,

351
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: you know, failing, trying to bounce back in the New

352
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,439
Speaker 1: York market with a restless fan base. So as you

353
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: have observed that from the sideline the last couple of games,

354
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: how it goes in this market? What do you make

355
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: of it? How do you feel like you're going to

356
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 1: be able to handle the ups and downs? Um? I

357
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: think Uh, you know, a similar um approach to Bruce's question.

358
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I think just focusing on what we're doing.

359
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: I think focusing on on the football on UM, you know,

360
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: on our preparation, on our our you know, weekly plan,

361
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: UM here in the building, here with uh you know,

362
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: my teammates, my coaches, UM, you know, everyone in the building.

363
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: Part of this organization I think is is, UM, you

364
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: know what would be key to UM you know my

365
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: success with that, and UM, you know I understand the responsibility. UM,

366
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: I understand the challenge, but UM, I'm certainly looking for

367
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 1: to it. Most rookie old rookie quarterbacks have to start somewhere.

368
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: But you're starting with Eli banning in the locker next

369
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: to you. UM. And you know what that means about

370
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,239
Speaker 1: replacing him? Is it? Is it a line you have

371
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: to tread or is it something you know you've got

372
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: to be thrilled for yourself and your preparation and getting

373
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,919
Speaker 1: ready to start. Then you have Eli who just was

374
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: benched after sixteen years. So how do you Is that

375
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: a juggling act for you? A little bit? UM? You know,

376
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: I think, UM, you know, since since I've since I've

377
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: gotten here, Eli has been um, nothing but um you know,

378
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 1: nothing but helpful and and um you know, welcoming to me.

379
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 1: And I think, um, you know, obviously now the roles

380
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: are are uh you know different, and and uh you

381
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: know that there will be uh you know, some some

382
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 1: differences there, but I think largely, um you know, our

383
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 1: relationship and and um you know how we communicate will

384
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: be will be the same. I think, Um, you know

385
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: he's uh he's done it for a long time at

386
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: a at a really high level. So there's certainly um

387
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 1: you know a ton I can continue to learn from

388
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: him and will so, UM you know, I think that's

389
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: a tremendous opportunity for me. Outs obviously different a lot

390
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: of the first you know, offense. I'm assuming since the

391
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: season started, a couple of your teammates that the way

392
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: they can help you with making sure the communication is sharp.

393
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: How do you expedite that in in you know today

394
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: through you know, before you take your staff to to

395
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 1: get that as perfect as possible. Um, I think it starts,

396
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: uh in the meeting room. I mean, I think before

397
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: we get out on the on the practice field, knowing

398
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: what uh we need to do, you know, you know,

399
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,120
Speaker 1: knowing what to expect from um, you know, from them

400
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: and then knowing what to expect from me. So, UM, yeah,

401
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: I think communication is is certainly key. Uh, it certainly

402
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: keeps that. It's obviously different than the United a little bit.

403
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: They've talked about you know, you're ability to run and

404
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: uh they talked about what you through the through the

405
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: deepall as well. How different do you expect the offense

406
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: to look for? How much would you like to sort

407
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: of make it conducive to what your skills are? Um,

408
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,719
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not sure the the uh, the offense

409
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: will change, uh you know substantially. I think it's it's

410
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 1: it'll be what what we do. It'll be what we've uh,

411
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 1: what we've rerapped since since the spring, and what um

412
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 1: you know, what we're what we're used to. So um,

413
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, I I certain I don't. I don't see

414
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: it change in a whole lot. Um you know, I think, um,

415
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: you know, we've we've got a good system. We've got

416
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 1: um you know, good players who who are used to

417
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 1: the system. So I think it'll it'll stay pretty consistent.

418
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 1: Watch two weeks you watched you know, two games that

419
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: were lost in that weren't all about quarterback play. But

420
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: you know entering the lineup, now, where do you think

421
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: you can help this team? Um? You know, I think, um,

422
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, through the first two weeks, like you said,

423
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 1: there have been uh you know a number of issues

424
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: and you know, as a team, we all have to

425
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: um you know, we all have to perform better. I

426
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: think that's um, you know, I think everyone's on the

427
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 1: same page there. But you know, I think my my

428
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: job is to is to come in and and uh

429
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: you know, one be prepared and and and know um

430
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: exactly what we need to do and and and execute that.

431
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think it's um you know, we

432
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 1: we you know, like I said, we have good players

433
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 1: and good spots, and and my job is to execute

434
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 1: the offense to get the ball where it needs to go,

435
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 1: UM on time and accurately. So UM you know, I

436
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: don't think, um, you know, my role changes in that sense.

437
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: I think, UM, you know, it's just just to execute.

438
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: What's your confidence level right now? And what would you

439
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: say to giant fans about what they can expect when

440
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: they see you for the first time in a regular

441
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: season day? Um, I think I'm I'm confident. I think,

442
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: like I said, I feel, uh, I feel good about

443
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 1: my progress uh to this point. You know, I certainly

444
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 1: understand there will be um a lot to learn and

445
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: and UM you know I look forward to that, UM

446
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: two giants fans. I mean I think, UM, just just

447
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: to know that that I'll compete as hard as I

448
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 1: possibly can, UM, prepare as hard as I possibly can,

449
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 1: and and um and when I'm when I'm out there,

450
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 1: just just to play as far as I as hard

451
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: as I can and and and do what I can

452
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: to help his team win games platform. When you came here,

453
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 1: you talked about earning the respect of your teammates. You

454
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: understood what you were coming here. For the fact that

455
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: it sounds like you did earn that respect from your

456
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: walker room. Did it make yesterday's news and today walking

457
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: out and I practice feeling feel any different? The idea

458
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,200
