The snap is good, 0:00:09.320 --> 0:00:12.000 the placement is good, the kick end over end towards 0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:16.400 the uprights. It is now god, hey, that's dead, but 0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:23.560 Jets surviving overtime. The first ness of the year for 0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:27.880 Josh Brown. Live from Calandraous Italian village and called Well 0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:31.800 New Jersey. It's inside the Jets on Nutty eight point 0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:37.160 seven ESPN. Here's Larry Hardisty and Eric Gallen and we 0:00:37.200 --> 0:00:40.440 welcome you to the Ovicio Cafe at Collaudra's Italian village. 0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:43.320 Here in called World New Jersey. Larry Hardisty and Eric 0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:47.400 Allen and e A for me, this was an unbelievable game. 0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.360 You heard Boba Shusan in the open lose his voice 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:54.120 over this contest all weekend long. Everybody's talking about what's 0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:57.760 gonna happen is the rivalry game. But we knew going 0:00:57.840 --> 0:01:01.480 in both of these teams really really needed this game, 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:06.440 and it was late time going down the stretch. Ryan Fitzpatrick, 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.560 they call him Ryan fitz Magic, and it's great for 0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:13.720 Jet fans to finally have a number one receiver it 0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:17.240 was Brandon Marshall, and the number two receiver it was 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:19.880 Eric Decker. It was both of those guys. E A. 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:23.319 They marched down the field and then we have a 0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:28.440 tie game fits again operating in the hurry up was 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:32.000 he was a magician out there. Fourth down, the keeper 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.560 guy makes the play and and then you go to 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:38.040 Brandon Marshall. Who else you go to Brandon Marshall to 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:41.760 tie his baby up? Going overtime, go right down the 0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:45.080 field again. Unfortunately for the Jets, hey didn't finish with 0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.520 a touchdown there, but they take the lead and then 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:51.960 they hang on. That was a gutty, gritty performance. I'll 0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:54.200 tell you what. This team showed a lot of character 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:57.640 and resolve. And we were sitting here at Calandres a 0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:01.160 couple of weeks ago after the Jets and went down 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:05.160 to Houston and fell to five and five overall, and 0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:08.760 a lot of people thought the world was falling apart. Okay, 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:11.760 now two weeks later, the Jets are sitting here seven 0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:15.120 or five out a two game win streak, playing meaningful 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:18.560 games in December, and if the season ended today, which 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:22.560 it doesn't, they'd be in the playoffs, play playing New England. 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.440 Of course. Yea, who hey, that'd be fun. Let's go 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.679 up to Foxboro'll be playing who else it's gonna be 0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:29.880 New Witlands. Let's go down about that. Listen. Here's the 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:33.320 other thing that that impressed me about yesterday offensively was 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:36.000 and you talk about Brandon Marshall, who was unbelieving, when 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:40.840 you talk about Eric Decker, who was outstanding, was amazing 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:44.640 yesterday out of the backfield. Uh, he was just amazing 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:47.720 with the way he performed yesterday. Big catches a lot 0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.520 of game. And and that's what we talked about with 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:55.080 Todd Bowls is that his ability to adjust. And Okay, 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.400 they've taken the runaway from the line of scrimmage seven 0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:00.280 eight in the box, so what else just knew? So 0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:03.240 let's get a running back into flat. Even griss Iby 0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:05.600 had some passes into flat as well, and it's just 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:09.040 like a run. Yeah, I'll tell you what. Ryan Fitzpatrick 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:12.880 at times early on, he took some shots. The Giants 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:15.560 got to him. He was sacked three times in all. 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:19.320 And but I thought the line started coming together late 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:21.359 in the game in the second half. And you mentioned 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:25.040 Paul what an outlet, and he's been dynamic with his 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:27.880 feet and he looks fresh too. That was a career 0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:31.280 high eight receptions and nine receiving yards he got in 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:34.040 the end zone in the first half, and then late 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:38.800 on the game tying touchdown drive, he was the first 0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.920 pass out of the backfield with the Jets pick up 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:44.960 twenty and that started things for him. So yesterday that 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:46.960 was the first time for the New York Jets that 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:50.440 they had two receivers with a hundred yards receiving in 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.960 Marshall and Decker since Tune and Walker. I mean, we're 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:58.440 seeing some rare things right now from those guys on 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:00.960 the outside. But like you're saying, we talk about every week, 0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:06.160 who's the third receiving weapon. Well, yesterday wasn't necessarily a receiver. 0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:10.560 It was a back and Balalpa gave them a big 0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:14.520 time jump. Um. You know, a lot of heroes yesterday, 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:17.400 and that's what typically happens when you come down from 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:21.920 ten points in the fourth quarter. That's only happened ten 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:25.440 times in Jets history, six times on the road, and 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:27.719 Jets fans were giving me a lot of a lot 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:29.720 of heat about it. They said, a road game, a 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:33.239 road game. Well technically technically it was a road game, 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:37.400 but uh yeah, you know, I'm still I'm still a 0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:40.640 little bit excited about it. But you know the guys. Uh. 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:43.160 A few of the guys talked on the conference call 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.719 today with the local media and Todd both spoke as well, 0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:51.320 and Boll said, hey, listen, they needed to see this, 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:55.680 They needed to see evidence of what happens when you 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:58.240 can finish. And I liked what I heard out Antonio 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:00.800 Camardi to Larry, he said, you of what, we haven't 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.440 played a complete game this year yet. We haven't put 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:07.440 it all together offensively, defensively, and on special teams. And 0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:11.159 the Jets had plenty to correct when uh, they look 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.599 at that game film. There were some penalties there. We 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:17.240 talked about, Uh, fits was under something rust early in 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:21.160 that ball game. The defense gave up big plays special 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:24.560 teams at times. But with that being said, so much 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:26.760 good came out of that ball game. The Jets gave 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.520 up twenty points in the second quarter, they shut down 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:33.200 Eli Manning and company over those final three quarters to 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:38.200 nothing zero points. And look the topic coming in. How 0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:41.039 many times did the guys last week talk about Odell 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:43.680 Beckham Jr. Was Was he the most talked about? He 0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.800 might be the most talked about athlete in the city 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:50.760 last week? And with the amazing one amazing catch that 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:53.880 he had for big yardage. Uh, and he reaches out 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:56.359 and grabs another football with one hand. Okay, so what 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:59.480 else is new? But once again, the key thing with 0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:01.720 him is keep him out of the end zone. He's 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:04.840 gonna make his catches. Yeah, he's a fabulous receiver, but 0:06:04.920 --> 0:06:07.320 it's about tackling him. It's about keeping him out of 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.800 the end zone. And really the second the Jet defense 0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:12.159 shut him down second and then they did in the 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:16.039 second half. And he's gonna make his place. He's just 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:18.159 too good. It's a great place. I'll tell you what. 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.080 The Jets have seen a lot of good receivers this year. 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.520 You know what you think about DeAndre Hopkins and obviously uh, 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.560 Sammy Watkins, and and the list goes on and on. 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:31.440 But I'll tell you what, Yeah, Odell makes it look 0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:34.680 too easy sometimes, Like somebody said today, it looked like 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:36.919 he was catching the tennis ball with that one hander. 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.159 But you know, and there was a mix up in 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:43.520 coverages there in a seventy two yard uh touchdown there 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:46.800 in the first half. And also Antonio Carmardi took blame 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.839 for the Giants field goal where they got a long 0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.840 pass to their tight end there before a halftime, and 0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:55.120 then we know the Jets also gave up the punt return. 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:57.920 But with that had all being said, the defense shutting 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:01.920 them down in the second half. The offense when they 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.159 needed ten points late, they got ten points, they got 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:09.480 to overtime, and when they got rolling, and Ryan Fitzpatrick 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:13.200 was doing rhythm. Wow, he he's playing tremendous. And people 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:16.320 want to ask me, Larry, over the past couple of weeks, Hey, 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:20.880 what about a late season slide. Isn't that typical Ryan Fitzpatrick. Well, 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:22.960 I don't see it because last week he threw four 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:28.160 touchdown passes. This game, he completed seventy his passes for 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:34.040 three yards and two touchdowns and wasn't picked off. So 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:38.000 Ryan fitz Ryan Fitzpatrick and we talked about it every week. 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:39.920 A lot of these guys in this locker room have 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:43.120 never participated in the postseason before. And when you think 0:07:43.120 --> 0:07:45.160 about a guy like Fitzpatrick, and you think about a 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.680 guy like Brandon Marshall who just eclipsed a thousand yards 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:52.800 for the eighth time in nine seasons, you know they 0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:55.520 see what's in front of them. But with that being said, 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:58.680 the guy said it today, Larry, it's the Tennessee Titans, 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.560 because then you have to start worrying about everything that 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:06.080 happens around you if you don't take care of business. 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.480 But right now you got Tennessee coming to town and 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:12.200 Marcus Mariotta making some place. They won a ballgame yesterday, 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:15.880 sometimes shoot out sometimes in the National Football League, it 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:18.480 is hard, It is difficult to win. You just gotta 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:21.040 find a way to win next week and then go 0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:24.400 from there. But the Jets have set themselves up here 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:28.280 to do something in December. Laurie Harstay and Eric Allen, 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.119 we're inside the Jets. This is that Colando's Italian Villas. 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:32.840 We are going to be joined a little bit later 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:35.559 by Marcus Gilchrist and also by Brian Winners. They'll be 0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:37.560 joining us in the latest segment. We'll take your calls 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:40.679 if you take your questions via even via Twitter, and 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.200 there's a bunch of them already that we're lined up, 0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:45.000 so we'll take them a little bit later in the 0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:47.200 thing before we go to breaking a Just give me 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:53.920 a sense of the feeling in that locker room last night. 0:08:54.559 --> 0:08:57.280 Big win, and let's stole the rivalry aside. Right now. 0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.880 This was a must win really for both teams and 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:04.280 when you get the sense of that defense coming through 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:06.319 shutting them down. You mentioned Ron test Miles with the 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:10.560 big interception. It's fourth down. Obviously, John's are going for 0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:12.760 the kill. They're trying to put seven on the board. 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:14.839 They're trying to say, listen, you can't beat this. We're 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.720 gonna try to go up three scores. Big difference. Yeah, 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:20.000 they want for the dagger, no doubt about it. Tom Coughlin, 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:22.080 they elected to go and he knows his team better 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:24.360 than anybody. I'm not gonna sit here in question what 0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.520 other teams choose to do out there on the ball 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:30.319 field fourth and two. He wanted to make it a 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:33.360 three possession game. The Jets stood up. I think it 0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:35.960 was big just getting an interception, because, yeah, if you 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.360 get a pass deflection or he throws the ball out 0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:41.160 of bounds, that's fine, you take over on downs. But 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:44.000 the Jets preached about takeaways all the time. So even 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.560 though it didn't really change the field position that much, 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:51.040 I just thought it changed the feeling out there. We'll 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.760 get an interception, Tess gets an interception. Oh, by the way, 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:55.840 he was the guy who jumped off sides on the 0:09:55.880 --> 0:10:00.000 fourth and four on the punt which extended that dry 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.120 even the first place. So the Jets made up for 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:04.360 a lot of their mistakes. But you know, we're gonna 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:06.320 talk to Brian Winners about this. We're gonna talk to 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:09.920 Marcus gill Cursse about this. It was an emotional locker room, 0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:13.000 you know. Uh, Todd Bowls was in there, presented a 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:16.520 game ball to Woody Johnson. The guys were having a 0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:18.439 good time in there, and they're allowed to celebrate and 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:22.200 they should feel good about themselves because you know, they 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:25.959 did finish. They did finish. They and and early in 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.400 the season they might not have won in this ball game. 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.000 But to me, this is a sign of a developing 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:34.400 ball club. It's a team that's finding ways to win 0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.719 even when they don't play well. And when you make 0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:42.360 mistakes and have turnovers like like the punt returns like 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:45.800 a turnover, you know, the offside, it's like a turnover. Uh. 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:48.160 You overcome that and you and you go on the 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:51.760 on the road, even though on the road, and you win, 0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:54.719 and you win in overtime. That's a big win. That's 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:56.760 a momentum win that you try to build on. And 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.280 that's what the goal is, to put wins together. And 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:02.000 that's what you're doing, Sumber eight. You spread and you 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:04.920 try to string wins together to get to the postseason. Yeah, 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:06.960 so you got Kansas City there at seven and five. 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:10.120 They're in a six game win streak right now, they're Well, 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:12.280 you got Pittsburgh sitting there at seven and five. You 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:14.480 got the Buffalo Bills at six and six, the Houston 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:17.000 Texans at six and six, the Colts at six and six. 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:19.880 You can't worry about that if you're a player in 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:21.920 that locker room.

All right, Larry, 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:40.720 let's bring in uh the quarterback in the second area, 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:45.520 that is New Jet Safety, Marcus Gilchrist Gilly. Thanks for 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:48.560 being here, Glad to be here. Marcus, got a big 0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:51.720 crow here. Uh. Family wise, can you tell us who's 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:55.160 joining your thought? Uh? Yeah, I have my lovely girlfriend here, Nicole, 0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:57.960 along with my daughter and uh my parents are here 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:01.600 in town for the weekend. What's your daughter's name, Sophia? Yeah, Sophia, 0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:04.400 and she's very young. So this is the first time 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:10.559 probably seeing dad on the radio. Right, definitely awesome, So okay, 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:12.760 I said, you guys get with twenty points, but I 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.640 really think the defense only gave up ten points looking 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:19.440 back at this ball game because punt return and also 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.679 you guys uh stood up there after there was a 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:26.040 turnover deep in your end forcing the field goals. So 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:30.640 the guys today on the conference call, Antonio Camari talked 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:33.720 about this. Gilli said, in the first half, we played 0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:36.680 more zone, but then once we started going on the 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:38.599 second half, we played a little bit more man and 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:42.200 the outside. Can you tell me about the adjustments you 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:44.920 guys made in the second half. Yeah, I mean that's 0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:47.400 that's what this game is all about, making adjustments on 0:13:48.280 --> 0:13:49.960 we didn't have two good of a half in the 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.640 first half, we felt as a defense. Um, the coaches 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:54.960 came in and we made the right adjustments. And I 0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:57.360 think a lot of that goes with us on the sideline. 0:13:57.360 --> 0:13:59.520 We're always coming back to the sideline discussing with each 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.480 other where we seene out there on the field, and 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.680 we were able to make the changes and uh and 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:07.360 adjust on the fly. So Marcus, what what's the challenge 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:09.320 when you have so many different moving parts. You got 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:11.480 the injuries, you got other guys stepping up and coming 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:15.319 into the secondary, the communication and everything that's so key. 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:19.320 Snakes man up. H I know every team in America 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.920 probably talks about it, next man up, But it's as 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:26.400 cliche as it sounds. That's the way it has to be. Um. Unfortunately, 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:29.000 in this game, you're gonna have injuries. UM, you're gonna 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.000 have things. They're gonna happen, You're gonna have up, You're 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:32.520 gonna have up and down. So we have to have 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:34.480 the next man up. And that's the mentality that every 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:36.760 guy has to have on a team. But Yep, we 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:38.600 talked about it every week. I knew he was gonna 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:41.840 answer that like that because I talked to Gilly about 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.200 this in the locker room. Obviously, you got one of 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:46.600 that ball game without Darrell Reavers, one of the games 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:51.360 top cornerbacks, Marcus Williams was down. You lost Kelvin Prior 0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:55.560 in the backfield with the stinger. So Tis comes in, 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:58.240 ron Tz Miles comes in, guy was on your practice 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:02.840 spot earlier this year and makes a momentum changing play 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:06.720 in the fourth quarter. What was that like being on 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:11.240 the field for so long and then preventing points and 0:15:11.600 --> 0:15:13.720 what do you think that did at that moment for 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:17.400 you guys as a defensive unit and the whole team. Uh, 0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:19.560 I couldn't be more proud of than Haney guy on 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.520 the team than Rontz, my Ola guy who who's just patient. 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:26.680 He's been patiently waiting his time to be able to play. 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:29.840 And I always talk to him about being prepared when 0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:33.400 preparation meets the opportunity, being prepared for when his opportunity 0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:35.360 become he could make the most of it. And uh, 0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:37.360 you know, it was good to see him make a 0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:39.880 big time play, a crucial play on fourth down fours. 0:15:40.280 --> 0:15:42.600 But I mean getting a stop like that, you know, 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.280 it does want us for the team. Actually we got 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:48.000 on the row um after that interception, so you know, 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:51.680 all in all, I think um as a defense to 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:53.640 come up with a stop like that was really big. 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.960 Were you're tired or frustrated being on the field because 0:15:57.240 --> 0:15:59.240 a bunch of penalties on that drive and then there 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:02.360 were times and you guys thought you had actually stopped 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.560 him and unfortunately like Ts had the off side pinally, 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.040 but he more than made up for with the interception. 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:11.160 But uh, you guys are on the field forever more 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:14.240 than eleven minutes. That's the part of the game. Uh, 0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:17.480 it's gonna happen. Um, that's what we trained the all 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:19.360 season four. That's what we have O t a s 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:21.800 fort this where we have camped for m we practice 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:26.280 situational football all the time. So UM it's it's something that, UM, 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:28.480 we don't want to happen, but we're prepared for it. 0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:31.120 And I'll tell you what, Larry, He's set situational football 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.400 the Giants zero three inside the red zone as far 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:37.320 as converting with touchdowns, absolutely, and that's something this defense 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:39.800 you have to pride yourself in being tough in the 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:42.160 red zone, getting off the field on third down, trying 0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:44.120 to minimize the big place they're gonna happen from time 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:47.080 to time, but just trying to minimize those big plays definitely. UM, 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:49.920 I think the keys to having a good defense is 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:54.160 um having third down, third down stops, creating turnovers and 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:57.000 stopping the run. And UM, I think we were able 0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:00.280 to collectively as a defense put that all the together 0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.520 in the second half now for you. But what's so 0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:07.040 interesting in watching the NBA is it depending on the scheme, 0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:10.359 he could be covering a wide receiver, he could be 0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:13.280 covering a tight end, and it's just amazing to watch 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:16.120 you and make the adjustment, and it's all about position right, 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:18.640 just covering whoever it is. It's it's about being your skip, 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:22.639 knowing your scheming, being in the right position. Uh definitely. Uh. 0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:28.200 The first thing playing defense, you have to know your assignment. Um. 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:33.479 Whatever the limitations of a coverage, the limitations of a defense, um, 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:36.399 that comes first and foremost, and that allows you to 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:39.920 be able to play faster. So um definitely. UM. I 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:42.200 take pride in being able to do all of those things. 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:45.080 Speaking of that, you enter the National Football League with 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:49.800 San Diego Chargers and your first role responsibility is playing cornerback. 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:53.879 How does that help you now that experience playing a 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:57.760 safety position. Well, I've done it since a young age. 0:17:57.760 --> 0:18:00.480 I started off actually playing safety, but in high school 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:03.000 will play a corner and safety, and college I played 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:06.720 corner and safety, So it's not that big of a 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:09.800 deal for me. It's an easy transition for me. I've 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:11.879 always felt like if you'r DV should be able to 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:14.320 play any of those positions in my opinion, and I 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:17.080 take pride in being able to do it. Markets skill 0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:19.440 crust is our guests Larry Harshty and Eric Allen since 0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:21.919 ide the Jet, your colonels on nine Dads having the ESPN. 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:23.760 What does the Stets have been like for you coming 0:18:23.800 --> 0:18:25.760 here to the Jets this year? What has it been like? What, 0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:28.639 What's what's been the excitement for you? Uh? It's been 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:32.040 an adjustment. Um. You you're used to being somewhere for 0:18:32.080 --> 0:18:35.080 four years and you're used to a culture, a certain culture. 0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.000 You used to a city. Uh, you used to your teammates, 0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.000 you used to your coaches, um, and you know, to 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:44.280 come all way across the other side of the country. Uh, 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:47.520 it's definitely adjustment. But we as football players, that's what 0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:49.800 we do. UM. When we go out on the field, 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.639 we have to adjust. Um. In everyday life, you have 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.320 to adjust. That's what we do. So UM, you know, 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:58.760 I've I've enjoyed every bit of it. Your former teammates 0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:02.520 in San Diego, Now, who are are really struggling this year? 0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:06.199 Did they talk to you and say, Wow, look at 0:19:06.200 --> 0:19:10.760 where you're at right now? And Uh? Not really. We 0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.640 just talked about life in general and how how each 0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:17.480 other's families are doing and things like that. Who are 0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:20.159 you close with Diego? Um? I talk a lot with 0:19:20.600 --> 0:19:23.520 Brandon Flowers and Eric Weddle and god like that. That 0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:26.080 was a good secondary that. Oh yeah, absolutely was. You 0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:29.240 talk about making adjustments. What's the adjustment like with your family? 0:19:29.520 --> 0:19:33.320 How's that play? Oh yeah, that's definitely an adjustment. Happening 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:36.720 to be a dad? Now what's that like? That? It's 0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:40.439 no other feeling like they going into what everybody always 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.679 tells you. Um, you know, it's no other feeling like 0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:46.119 you know, you're you're not gonna understand until it happens, 0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.359 and you you kind of be like, oh yeah, but 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:53.320 sure enough, Um when she came out, there's no feeling 0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:55.880 like it. And it's a joy. That's that's above any 0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:59.560 anything else what I do and Field cannot overshadow me 0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:02.000 being a parents and it changes things right now you 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:04.600 look at things. You have an added responsibility. So there's 0:20:04.840 --> 0:20:07.400 even the bigger change left he put It definitely puts 0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:13.440 things in the perspective. Now you're sleeping, Uh pretty good. Uh. 0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:16.000 I got a great girlfriend there. Uh takes on a 0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:19.240 lot for me, So I'm blessed to have that. Uh. 0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:24.040 Marcus of course played college ball at Clemson. We're just 0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:29.520 talking about it. The Tigers in that c A's semifinals 0:20:29.560 --> 0:20:33.359 now earned a trip there with the defeat of the 0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:36.199 North Carolina tar Heels on Saturday night. What do you 0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:39.960 think about that team this year and how proud proud 0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:45.720 are you of your alma mater? Definitely a proud alumni. UM. 0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:47.359 I was able to go to the game when they 0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:50.760 played in Syraca at Syracuse UM, you know, just to 0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:53.240 be around the coaches and and a lot of guys 0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:55.280 that I played with being at the game. We brought 0:20:55.280 --> 0:20:57.800 back those old fieldings. So to see those guys being 0:20:57.800 --> 0:21:01.240 so successful right now, you know, can't I can't be 0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:04.600 nothing but happy. So Marcus, now you get to talked 0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:06.199 about the Giant game, you get to look at that 0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:08.720 and that's over. Now you just got get ready for Tennessee. 0:21:08.760 --> 0:21:10.840 You don't get you to enjoy these wins, right, you 0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:12.800 just move right on the Tennessee. I know you haven't 0:21:12.800 --> 0:21:15.520 really started to digress or break them down yet, but 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:18.840 just talking about facing a rookie quarterback and Mariota who's 0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:22.560
