1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 1: Well, I hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving obviously the

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: last two weeks. But and uh last night or yesterday's

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 1: first day Hanukah, so happy holidays.

4
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 2: Uh.

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: Haven't been able to talk to you for three weeks now. Uh,

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: So you know, we've had some good things happen there

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: at both the Washington game in New England game and

8
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: UH really pleased where you know, guys are really stepping

9
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: up and and and gelling as a defense and and

10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: playing well. And it's it's been fun to watch, you know,

11
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: the takeaways uh that we've that we've been able to

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: generate and uh and and things to you know, have

13
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: some positive things happened, you know for us in the

14
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: field and the you know series of the different series

15
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: of events that we've had. So uh with that, I'll

16
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: I'll bring it up to questions, where is it for

17
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: a guy like Bobby be on the field every play?

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: Uh not at that position. It's not rare, at least

19
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: not my career hasn't been. You know. I think that's

20
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: a tribute to his skill set and his leadership and

21
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: his knowledge of the defense, you know, which you know,

22
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: every every week it's a different challenge, you know, with

23
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: Green Bay. Matt's done an outstanding job with this offense,

24
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,199
Speaker 1: and you can really see it's you know, catered around

25
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: the quarterback and it's Matt's personality of his his offense,

26
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: which is in the family of San Francisco Shanahan and

27
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins with Daniel and McVeigh in LA and

28
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: it's a it's it's it's it's definitely a tough out

29
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: the receivers or you know, it's a deep room the

30
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: running backs, A deep room there. When I say deep room,

31
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: they have a lot of talent, maybe you know, the

32
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: deepest rooms in the league. And those young guys are

33
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,919
Speaker 1: really playing well. They got some good football players over there.

34
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: And I think Luke Buckets has this offensive line playing

35
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: really well together. So it's gonna be a great challenge

36
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: for us. We haven't had we haven't had a chance

37
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: to talk to you since the Jay Glazer report. What context,

38
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: if any, can you give us on that? Context is fine?

39
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: I mean, Kim, it's when you're four and eight instead

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: of eight and four. Things like that come up. I

41
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: think that you know, the the cookie cutter answer is

42
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: as we're focused on Green Bay, but I don't ever

43
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: give you cookie cutters answers. I do tell you this though,

44
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: that this game always has been and always will be

45
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: about the players, and I want to keep it that way.

46
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: You know, like I always say, I owe I owe

47
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: the players my composure. And I think that you know,

48
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: there's nothing you can do when someone says something, you

49
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, there's nothing you can do about that.

50
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: And you know, and I think that the response that

51
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: you you know, you got from the players, you know,

52
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: it's just they there was there was you know, there's

53
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: nothing that's that's happened, you know that way. So like

54
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: I said, if if you know, I think Joe and

55
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: Brian both I've said it before. You know, they're they're

56
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: we're building something here, and I think you just got

57
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: to stay focused on that. And today is Friday slash

58
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: Thursday practice, which when you're old that that really messes

59
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: with you. But you know, we're just ready to go

60
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: and have a great practice today.

61
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: Of that report was that there's a chance you might

62
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: not even finish out this year here or wouldn't be

63
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 2: back next year.

64
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: What do you see as your future here? Because you yeah,

65
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: and I still am you know, the Maris and the

66
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: tissues and in this organization. I've said that this is

67
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: not a stepping stone, it's a destination. It still is.

68
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: And I think you know, when when when you're doing

69
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: something the way we're doing it, when we when we

70
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: got here and I'm talking about building this defense is

71
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: you know when they when they build the big skyscrapers

72
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: over there in the city, they put in the pilots,

73
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: that's not fun to watch. It's fun to go see

74
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: the building after it's done. And right now, you know,

75
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: we're still putting in the pilings in year two. And

76
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: you know, I think there's things that you come across

77
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: that are different. But as far as the answer where

78
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to be at, I I no one knows

79
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: that of it. You know, I know that, I say,

80
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: we Laura and myself have worked hard enough and long

81
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: enough in this league. You know that. You know, at

82
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: the end of the year, hopefully you have all kinds

83
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: of choices, might be grab my golf clubs and go

84
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: play golf in Florida, and you know, hopefully it's a raise.

85
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: Don't we all want raises? Yeah, we all do. So,

86
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's uh, you know, it's it's it.

87
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 1: You just don't know what's going to happen. I can't

88
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: predict the future. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

89
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 2: The report said that your relationship with Davil is in

90
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 2: a bad place and as a lot of tensions you

91
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 2: speak re leadership with.

92
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: They will We're fine. I mean, it's just it's it's

93
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: it's the same thing as it was last year. You know,

94
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: it was just different because we're winning more games, and

95
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: it's like it's it's different every place you go, you know,

96
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 1: the relationship with the head coach and the defensive coordinator

97
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: or assistance, especially when it's new and you know it's

98
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: been what twenty two months out, you know, a year

99
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 1: and a half, and it's it's that, you know, it's

100
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: that we're going to keep working and keep trying to win.

101
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: You know, we're all focused on Green Bed week. When

102
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: you hear something like that, though, when when it was

103
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: first brought to your attention, how would you describe what

104
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: you thought? Bothers you? You know what I mean, it

105
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 1: bothers you, Like he told here's it. Here's what he

106
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: told me. When I say hey, Brian after the game,

107
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 1: he goes, hey, there's a report out that that you

108
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: and I aren't getting along and that you're you're gonna

109
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: be fired. I said, I don't pay attention to that.

110
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: You know, this is after the New England game. I'm

111
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: saying on the field, I said, you know, I woke

112
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 1: up Sunday morning, Washington, and there's a Google lord on

113
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: my phone. You know how we're all addicted to our phones.

114
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: When you get a Googler. I saw the four replacements

115
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: that they had for me here in New York. So

116
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: if you if you sat there and you based your

117
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: life off of what you read, you you'd be very miserable.

118
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: And I refuse to do that. I just, like I said,

119
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 1: I care too much about these players. We care too

120
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: much about these players and their success and and and

121
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: build a program here that I'm just not gonna let

122
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: it effect you guys.

123
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: You guys have like different relationships, I mean personality. Sorry,

124
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: is it fair to say that you guys don't always

125
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 2: see eye to eye.

126
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: I I don't see I'd with my wife all the time.

127
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, it's he's the head coach,

128
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: and it's my job to forward his plan. And that's

129
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do.

130
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 2: Part of the report said that you might not even

131
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: like finish out the year here, is there anything to.

132
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: That I'm still here today. You know, every time my

133
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: key card works pad them. It's not like I go

134
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: there and it works and I go yeah, I'll be like, hey,

135
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: this is doesn't work anymore, you know. So you know,

136
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: I I have no I don't make that decision. I

137
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: can't answer that question.

138
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 2: What kind of.

139
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: Reassurances have you been given that? Like you said, you

140
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: we haven't even talked about it, because, like I said,

141
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: it's to me, it's you know that we're That's where

142
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: it gets back to the players and being focused on

143
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: winning this game. I hate the fact that it's a

144
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: story because it takes away from how good Bobby o

145
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: Caareca is playing, how good kvon Timodau's playing, how good

146
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: Dex is planning, how good Nacho and Ashan are playing,

147
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: how good uhh X has been playing you know the

148
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: last three weeks. Because it's to me, it's it's it's

149
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: about the players. And I understand that you guys, you

150
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: know your job. You guys have no respects you more

151
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: than I do. I understand all that. It is just

152
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: how it is and where it's at.

153
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 2: Every one of those players said when we asked them

154
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,040
