00:00All right, London in the locker room.

00:03Week six, short week with Dexter Lawrence.

00:06Please forgive.

00:07I don't have the mic flag thing on this one, so my apologies on this one.

00:11I guess now that you guys had time to flush Sunday's loss,

00:15get ready for the Eagles coming up on a short week,

00:18where's the mindset of this team right now and you personally,

00:20especially as one of the captains and leaders on this team?

00:23You just went in week six, honestly.

00:25That's where your focus has to be.

00:27If it's not, then you need to be here for real.

00:30So I think that message is around, and you don't dwell on losses like that,

00:37but you just get ready to win the next week.

00:39We talk about the penalties and things that kind of Giants versus Giants

00:43as opposed to Giants versus Saints or whatever opponent that they're playing against.

00:48Some of these penalties are back-breaking decks.

00:50You being a captain and a guy that's been in the ups and downs of success

00:54and losses on this team, how do you get that point across to guys

00:59that this is what's keeping us from getting wins?

01:03I mean, you just can't have it.

01:04I mean, and there's other stuff that goes into the game with losing,

01:07but penalties, refs going to call tic-tac stuff sometimes.

01:12You got to let it happen, but let's try not to leave it to them.

01:16Just be in the right places where you need to be

01:18and, you know, doing your technique in the best of your ability.

01:21Where are you at mentally right now, going into a short week against the Eagles,

01:25kind of a must-win in October.

01:28Like, where are you at mentally?

01:29Is it more doing, like, you got to do more per se,

01:34or do you need to say more?

01:36Are there things you feel you're leaving unchecked?

01:38Like, how do you show leadership from the front?

01:40I mean, just attack every day with a winning attitude.

01:43Whatever it is, whatever you do.

01:46And I think that's the biggest key to success, you know,

01:50knowing that, you know, having the belief that you're going to win

01:52and going to do it.

01:54Going up against the Eagles team,

01:55there were a lot of playmakers on the outside.

01:57Obviously, Saquon's there.

01:58How do you slow down that offense

02:01and come out of Thursday night with a W?

02:03You just got to attack the O-line, you know,

02:06get a lot of knockback and, you know, be physical with them.

02:09I think that's the biggest key to winning the game.

02:12And, you know, slowing Saquon up as best as you can.

02:16But, you know, he might get one maybe,

02:20but, you know, you can't let him maybe be multiple.

02:23After Jackson Dart's fumble,

02:25you saw the entire sideline kind of rally around him,

02:28kind of pick him up.

02:29Same thing with Cam Scadaboo.

02:31Is it safe to say that you guys are still together

02:33as a unit, as a team right now,

02:35and you just need some luck to break your way to get a dub?

02:38I mean, it ain't going to take luck,

02:39but you're not going to break us.

02:42Whatever that comes up, you know,

02:45through this roller coaster or whatever,

02:46you're not going to break us.

02:48All right, man.

02:48Appreciate it.

02:49Good luck on Thursday.
