Brian Daboll (1:27)

Do not.

SPEAKER_4 (1:30)

What happened to one player? What have you gotten them?

Brian Daboll (1:33)

I haven't talked to the train staff yet. I think they'll be up here to talk.

Meet with those guys after this.

SPEAKER_4 (1:40)

What did you see on that play?

Brian Daboll (1:42)

Got hit. Pretty good, but getting hit quite a bit.

SPEAKER_5 (1:47)

You knew coming into this game obviously about their speed. Seeing it up close, did anything about it surprise you, or your inability to deal with their speed?

Brian Daboll (1:56)

No, they're real fast. You know, took a lot of short passes for long gains.

So, you get explosive plays, it usually leads to points.

SPEAKER_6 (2:07)

Before Daniel got hurt, why did you guys struggle to move the ball so much?

Brian Daboll (2:13)

That takes on all them people, so.

SPEAKER_4 (2:18)

How untenable is it for your quarterbacks to be getting hit so much at this point?

Brian Daboll (2:23)

Yeah, you don't want that. Back then, the quarterback plays an important role in the game, and we've got to figure out a way to protect them better.

SPEAKER_7 (2:30)

Do you have the personnel on your team to protect a quarterback?

Brian Daboll (2:34)

Yeah, we got to do a better job, Pat, just all the way around.

SPEAKER_4 (2:40)

You took Josh Zudu out at one point. What was your thinking behind that?

Brian Daboll (2:45)

Yeah, put Parrott in there, bring him out, settle him down a little bit, and let Parrott play.

SPEAKER_5 (2:51)

How close was Saquon to making it today?

Brian Daboll (2:54)

He was getting closer every week.

SPEAKER_8 (2:57)

What happened to Dory Jackson that he wasn't on the field when you gave up the 69-year touchdown right after the half?

Brian Daboll (3:03)

Yeah, he had a little something there, Rod, and then, you know, the two young guys, you know, two of them made a good play.

SPEAKER_9 (3:11)

What happened to injury?

SPEAKER_7 (3:12)

Was McKinney supposed to be over the top?

Brian Daboll (3:15)

Yeah, I mean, we had a... I'm not going to go into the total depths of it, but they just didn't get it quite executed.

SPEAKER_9 (3:22)

So, did Dory have an injury with some shoulder cramps or something?

Brian Daboll (3:25)

Yeah, I think, but I don't have him on the sheet right now.

SPEAKER_7 (3:30)

Aziz and Banks both came out at times, were opposed to them.

Brian Daboll (3:33)

Yeah, Aziz right here says an ankle. I don't have any update for it.

SPEAKER_7 (3:44)

What can you do about the offensive tackle position without Andrew coming back?

Brian Daboll (3:50)

Well, we just got to keep working with them, get them better, unless we can try to do it this week.

SPEAKER_10 (3:55)

Dave, is it bigger, though, than just the tackle position on the line?

Brian Daboll (3:59)

I'll just say, overall, we got to do a better job, offensively, obviously, so... get back to work and try to do a better job.

SPEAKER_11 (4:07)

How do you fix the penalty of this part? You have drives that start with promise, and it just seems like they stall because either a sack or...

Brian Daboll (4:14)

Yeah, it's tough to overcome those negative plays for us right now, so staying on track is really important.

SPEAKER_7 (4:20)

I'm going for how Steve has been holding on for this team.
