0:00

Coach, can you talk about Shep? You know you've

0:02

only had him for two years. Can you just talk about what you

0:04

know, what he's brought to the locker room with the team

0:06

and how he closed out potentially close

0:08

out his care Yeah.

0:10

Good teammate, has a lot of energy.

0:13

You know, he's been here for for a bit. This

0:16

is the only team he's played for. This is important

0:18

organization to him. But

0:20

I'd just say as a really good person, a good

0:22

father, They've

0:25

got a lot of respect for Shep. And you

0:27

know, towards the end there we're trying to get him, you know, bumped

0:30

up there, gave him a look past and

0:32

I told him a younger set might have made that

0:34

guy miss and run in. So but

0:37

it was it was good Thaves.

0:40

How important is I know, obviously the final

0:42

record is that you know what you wanted. How

0:44

imporant is it for the big pitch, finishing

0:47

strong, getting a win against the Eagles at the end,

0:49

so everything that you look into establish.

0:51

Yeah, I mean one year so different than the next.

0:53

I'm just going to enjoy this one here. I mean we

0:55

were three and three in the division and

0:58

I thought we got off to a really good start in first half,

1:00

played physical game, made some explosive

1:02

plays, played complimentary football. So

1:06

you know, I'm just happy for the guys right now. There's

1:08

a long time between now and the next season,

1:11

as you all know, so just enjoy

1:13

this one and uh, you know, probably the way

1:15

the guys competed and fought and ultimately

1:17

made more plays in.

1:18

That name, can you speak out see it With a lot

1:20

of decisions to be made the off season, with safe one

1:23

being one of them, can you speak to his

1:25

day to day and if this was potentially

1:27

his last go round?

1:28

Yeah, there's so much time between now and next season,

1:30

it'd be all speculation, you know, But

1:32

his night tonight, you know, just made a nice

1:34

play down the sideline. I thought I found him a

1:37

nice play call, kind of motioned them out and empty ran

1:39

a rail route, did a nice job on a checkdown, you

1:42

know, got them, got them involved in the red zone, made some nice

1:44

plays. So it's

1:46

good.

1:48

You know, I know you're trying not to have regrets. You play the

1:50

players that are helped out there, But do you ever

1:52

have COVID to say what the season could have been

1:54

of Tyrod didn't get hurt in that Jet game

1:57

and didn't miss the time he had.

2:00

Now's play the guys that are ready to

2:02

go. You know, look,

2:04

we had some close ones, didn't again,

2:07

didn't end the way we wanted to end. But very proud

2:09

of the guys the way they compete it, particularly this last

2:11

whole stretch of of you

2:14

know, the way they compete it. I was, I was really

2:16

proud of them. Tyright's performance

2:18

today, Yeah, I mean last

2:20

week, I think he started fifty eight games. Last

2:22

week was the second three hundred yard game in

2:25

his career. He was was he did he get one

2:27

tonight? Okay,

2:29

so you know he had won last

2:31

week. I thought he did some good stuff this week. So

2:36

true pro.

2:39

You want a different Wallo

2:42

get banged up a little bit.

2:43

Yeah, a lot of guys got banged up throughout the game.

2:47

Yeah, sometimes the veteran doesn't

2:49

come back, you know.

2:51

What I mean.

2:51

I mean that an example, I

2:53

mean he just in general, sometimes guys,

2:56

you know, they choose not

2:58

to play at the end if you know you're

3:01

not playing in the playoffs or anything. The fact that

3:03

he did isactly you want to see, you

3:05

know, as a culture around this team.

3:07

Yeah, yeah, I mean I don't have a lot of experiences

3:10

with that in twenty five years. But

3:12

I mean, I'm sure there's some, but you

3:14

know, we're pros. So go out there and compete

3:16

and do everything you can do to try to win a game.

3:19

Bobbio Karake had that leap on

3:22

the on the push, Yeah,

3:24

is that something that is coach talked

3:27

about because Carl Banks earlier the

3:29

week and talked about what he would have done

3:32

the thing he thought.

3:32

He moved the ball a little bit, So take a chance

3:35

on it, coach, Can.

3:36

You talk a little bit about about one deal?

3:39

And you know the way he's ended

3:41

the season.

3:42

Yeah, he's finally getting healthy, I mean really healthy.

3:44

So he's got quickness,

3:46

speed, good with the ball in his hands. I've said

3:48

that plenty of times. I know early in the season

3:51

maybe not as productive, but

3:53

I think that was a result of him fighting through and

3:56

his knee and that's a tough thing to do when you're

3:59

a skilled player that relies on quickness

4:01

and speed and explosiveness. And

4:03

I'm sure happy we have him. I think he's gonna be a good player

4:06

for us. He's a great teammate.

4:09

Glad we got him.

4:11

When you look across at the other sideline,

4:13

you see the Eagles and you see all the talent

4:15

they have, you kind of spratschet your head, going, why

4:18

are they struggling so much down the stretch.

4:20

You have just focused on the Giants, So I

4:24

thought, our guys compete it practice. Well,

4:26

I mean they've done that all this whole back

4:28

half here. You

4:30

know, it's good to end off on a on a win.

4:33

Coach, can you talk about the job the coordinators

4:36

did today? I mean it looked like they emptied

4:38

the playbook basically.

4:39

Yeah, I mean they try to do that every week. It's

4:42

what you try to do. Put your guys

4:44

in good position, go out there and

4:46

no compete to try to win a game.

4:49

You had to shift it on the offensive line today one

4:51

more time.

4:51

Sorry excuse me.

4:53

Yeah, shifted on the offensive line today.

4:54

With Schmids being out spoke Abob.

4:56

You know those guys perk had to come into obviously.

4:59

Yeah, yeah,

5:01

I mean we've done that, you know throughout the week. You

5:04

know, worked worked a couple of guys out this morning. They

5:06

couldn't go, so uh, credit to those

5:08

guys of of being able to play multiple

5:10

spots. But we you know, do it through,

5:12

walkthrough, walk through some of

5:14

practice. You know, that's why you

5:16

kind of move guys around a little bit. So, you

5:18

know, Glow was a tight end for us,

5:20

and now he was in guard and Bretison Paarrot

5:23

came back and played right tackle, so I

5:26

thought they compete it well.

5:28

Bryan five Sex, how'd you feel about the defense

5:31

and performance today?

5:32

Yeah, I say just team at the

5:35

team performance was good to have some good team football

5:37

in there, and I got off to a fast start,

5:41

you know, so I was good team football and

5:43

I'm.

5:43

Not talking about you your

5:46

players. Yeah.

5:47

How important is it or is it important

5:49

for them to end this season psychologically

5:51

on a high moving forward? Yeah? I think it's

5:53

anytime you win, it's a good thing. And obviously

5:55

our last game of the year, I certainly would like to be playing

5:57

still, But again, they're at

6:00

tudes the way

6:02

they handle their business day in and day out in

6:04

our building. You

6:06

know, I'm really proud of you guys.

6:09

So, uh, you know, that's a that's

6:11

a happy locker room, as it should

6:13

be.

6:14

What's the next couple of days going to be like an

6:16

engine season and out having to prepare for a playoff.

6:19

Yeah, a lot of meetings
