Speaker 1 (00:00):
So Dan, you get the sixth interception of your giant's career,
and it's not like you've been around for twenty years either.
The ball seems to find you. What did you see?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Just being able to play the routes massive quarterback look
at him, you know, read them, kind of disguise the
covers while we're in and being able to jump in
his own get the balls, you know, like you said,
what I love to do, So it was good to
get it.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Turnovers seemed to be coming a little bit more frequently
recently as opposed to earlier in this season. Why do
you think.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
I just feel like we're playing faster, being able to
mix things up, disguise things, being able to be on
the same page, and like really just everyone knows what
we're doing, where we're going. The picture is changing, so
I feel like everyone's working together, just disguising the picture,
jumping the zones and making plays.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
How much of this defense that we're seeing now is
a reflection of the personality of Charlie Bullen and how
much he's connected to you guys.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, I feel like he's doing a great job ever
since he he got day one when he came in
just being able to, you know, talk to us, encourage us,
have that fire, no matter what you know, the season
happened before, but being able to, you know, give us
that fire and keep going out. So I feel like
he's doing a great job leading us.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Speaking of fire, it was clear you guys had a
fire today when a lot of people would question, will
the team have fire? What does that say about you guys?

Speaker 2 (01:08):
It says a lot. You know, a lot of people
say we had none to play for it, But as men,
as brothers, as teammates, like you know, we're going to
go out there and put it online for each other.
So that's just who we are as men. Is an
image of that, and just being able to get a
win as huge, you know, no matter how it comes
to win is a win
