 I'm not as good as you, Mr. Alpro, 159 tackles, six overall in the entire NFL. What makes this season so special for you? Why is it working? I feel like, you know, honestly, just my confidence is a lot different. I feel like last year to kind of get in my feet wet a little bit and, you know, starting like the last half games and just kind of getting that feeling that, you know, I can play at this level and I can play at a high level at this level as well. And he is buried. TJ Edwards, one of the linchpins of this Eagles defense. It's crazy to hear you say like, I can play in this league. Like you are, you're one of the best players in this league. You're an all pro. You are getting noticed from everybody, even the ButtKiss Foundation. Like that is no joke. I'm looking at the other guys who are up for the award, right? The nominees. It's Nick Bolton. It's TJ Mosley. It's Fred Warner. It's Bobby Wagner. It's Ro. Nick, who just got the back like, these are elite names, but they're also high draft picks. You being undrafted, like how did everybody eff up so badly? How did everybody get it wrong? Yeah, let me tell you, they get caught up in those analytics. I think at times, but to me, it didn't really matter if I, you know, went super high, went super low. I just wanted an opportunity. And, you know, it was, you know, it was a tough weekend. I think for more so my family, you know, just expecting all these things. But it's just been an amazing ride. And I wouldn't want it to go any other way to be honest with you. What motivates you? I just think that that driver just, I want, I just want so much more. Just I want, you know, everyone to be able to trust me, which I think I'm starting to slowly get, but I think just me being out there and being the green dot from the start and being the guy that is communicating every single play, I think that helps a lot. What's it like having to practice against this offense with animals? Jason Kelsey and Lane Johnson when he's healthy and then AJ and then Smith. Like that cannot be that fun. Yeah, it's, it's, it's absolutely great. Like it is, you know, going into camp, you can just see the battles, you know, every single day it's, you know, AJ and Slay. And then it's, you know, we got our front versus our O-line and Myles and Jalen. It's, it's, it's a scary, it's a scary thing. At practice, we love to compete. So Coach Tariani does a good job of having us just compete in everything, whether it's shooting baskets, you know, in our team meeting and or playing ping pong or like three points and see who wins for the day. It's a, it's a competitive group and that's helped us a lot. Who is the Michael Jordan of ping pong in that locker room? Let's say who the best at ping pong? Definitely not Jake Elliott. Jake Elliott or Isaac? Jake Elliott times 10. Isaac. Isaac's pretty f***ing good. You know what? I'm going to go with Jake. That boy, Jake good at everything. Okay, so there's, this is a pretty serious thing in our locker room. It's pretty real. So, so Jake Elliott outstays the top. Really? Yeah. Again, there's probably not, you know, fun fact about Jake is, you know, he played tennis in college. So I don't, and he's an amazing golfer. Like I don't really don't know what he's bad at. Illinois boy. Yeah. Illinois boy. Exactly. He's, he's probably the top. And then I would say Isaac Somali, which is crazy. You won't admit it, but Isaac's the best. How athletic his dude is on the ping pong table and how he moves and maneuvers. It's, it's, it's real. So I would say probably those two at the top and I'm, I'm somewhere top five. I'm in there somewhere, but we got to get our power rankings together to get an official list. What's, how's Siriani at ping pong? He's actually never seen him play ping pong. I've seen that he shoots all the time. So he shoots basketball. The guys, he can shoot. He's like a mid-range guy. I wouldn't say he's like, he's a pretty broad threat at all. But he's, he's a, you know, good fundamentals, all that type, which is perfect for his personality, no doubt. So make sure we understand what our motivation is and that's everybody in the room. We're in there for each other. Keep connecting, keep growing, keep going together. When you get a guy, I feel like one of the good or bad, but he comes in with the same mindset, the same messages of what he truly believes. It's easy to follow someone like that. You know, he's an emotional guy, just like the rest of us, you know, we, you know, this game is a, it's a crazy game, as you know. So having a guy who's our leader and willing to get emotional with us and, you know, fight for us, it is a guy that everyone has his respect for sure. You do get the Giants this week. Now, listen, y'all held this machine named Seyquan Barclay to 28 yards on the ground. How did you do that? Yeah, it's a, it's a team effort. I mean, I think you've seen him, you know, weekly, just against a lot of teams, just doing what he does. And, you know, I think that's why he was so, you know, highly talented coming out. I played against him when he was at Penn State in the Big Ten Championship, so I've known about him for, for quite some time. He looks like that guy though, right now. He looks like a take-off. No, he does. He does. You can, you can see, I mean, his burst is, is, I feel like unmatched and how, how well he balances in the, in the hole. And it takes all 11 to contain that guy. I mean, Miles Sanders is probably excited too. Yeah. Yeah. That's, that's my guy too. So, you know, two Penn State boys going at it again. So it'll be good. That's big of you, Wisconsin boy, being so nice to them. Listen to them. It's only because they beat us. So, it's all right. You started out hot this season, 13-1. Now there's some injuries. Jalen Hurts, Lane Johnson, what do you want to say to anybody out there who might be starting to doubt this Philly team? Yeah. I mean, I feel like we've been through a lot this year and, you know, ups and downs and we've won close games, we've lost close games. And I feel like we've, we've finally kind of figured out who we are. You know, our best football field yet to come, which is, you know, the most exciting part and also knowing that we need that right now, which I'm confident we'll bring for sure. Do y'all still have that back cape? Is that still happening or is that old news? That was, you know, that was a little early on. He fell off. I'm sure, I'm sure it's still in there. You know, I think there was one game with both, you know, Smitty, Quezz and AJ all came out of tunnel together, you know, wearing the Batman's and all that stuff. So, I think that's kind of down on. And then Jalen Chelsea said that he wants to be the fat Batman or something like that. There's a picture with him with the full mask on and all that stuff, you know, shirt off belly out. So it's, it's still relevant. You guys are heavy favorites. You're home, you've beaten this giant steam twice. I hate division matchups in the playoffs. What makes division games so tough? Everyone knows each other, you know, we played against each other twice. And so we know personnel. We understand kind of how they like to play games and how they like to maneuver their offense and things like that. So there's going to be some Dines fans there if some of the Philly fans let them. But it'll be it's going to be a crazy environment. I'm pumped about it. Why does your face? Why does that smile happen when you say Philly is going to be crazy? You talk about Philly and what that place is like a lot. Yeah, it's I mean, it's it's absolutely incredible environment, whether we're home or away, honestly, just the games that we've been to, you know, away and we've had, you know, the amount of cheers and that they've just taken over stadiums. And now you get them at home that night on a Saturday can sleep in on Sunday, so they will be absolutely ready to go and go work on your ping-pong game after off season thing to work on. Exactly. Exactly. Tell Eagles fans how much you love them and how much you need them this weekend. I'm sure they already know, you know, they'll be there rocking, screaming, horns going, who knows what? You know, I'm sure there'll be some Batman's in the crowd as well. So it's going to be an amazing time. And I absolutely can't wait. And a fat Batman named Jason. And a fat Batman. Thank you. I'm sorry. All pro T.J. Here we go. It's all a little different. I like it though. I like it. Thank you so much. Good luck. OK. Yeah, thank you. It's really nice talking to you. Enjoy it. You too. You too.
