00:00 >> Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. >> What's up, everybody?
00:01 >> Look at that. >> Hold it up.
00:03 >> Yeah, y'all wanna see?
00:04 Yeah, first and foremost, shout out to Good Morning Football, Jason and
00:08 all the boys, appreciate y'all. >> Does that make up a little for
00:12 the snubbing you got? >> You said what?
00:15 >> Does that make up a little bit for
00:16 the snubbing you got? >> Yeah, yeah, 100%, 100%.
00:18 It makes me feel a little bit better. >> We haven't had a chance to talk to you
00:23 about that, but just the reaction of not taking the Pro Bowl and
00:27 your dad coming out here to play defense big time.
00:29 >> Yeah, it's unfortunate, but it is what it is.
00:31 I can't control that.
00:32 I don't know what the actual controls are doing for you.
00:34 >> Why do you think there's some people are maybe overlooking,
00:38 the NFLPA Pro Bowl came out or All Pro came out, and you weren't on that either.
00:45 Why do you think that people are just kinda overlooking what you're doing this
00:48 year? >> I'm not sure, I have no clue.
00:50 >> [LAUGH]
00:52 >> It's a bother.
00:54 >> I mean, I know what I do,
00:55 I know what I'm capable of.
00:56 I know the work that I put in.
00:57 So at the end of the day, I think that's the only thing that really matters.
01:00 >> Cuz you've put up stats that haven't happened in 20 something years.
01:04 >> Right, that's what I'm saying.
01:05 I know what I'm capable of.
01:06 I know what I bring to the table.
01:07 So I'm happy.
01:09 >> How good did it feel to get so much response from around the country,
01:12 whether it was players, media, everybody saying that you're the best safety
01:17 in the NFL?
01:18 >> It's cool to see my name out there.
01:22 Like I said before, I'm happy with my stats.
01:24 I'm happy where I'm at.
01:26 I can only control what I do on the field.
01:27 And then after that, everybody can have their own opinions, but
01:30 I just know what I bring to the table.
01:31 >> You've had two goal line strips this season with Lyle and then last week.
01:35 Is that something you work on at practice all season long?
01:38 >> Yeah, it's something, I mean,
01:40 you don't fully get a chance to do that in practice, but
01:44 you can always take your mind there.
01:45 So when a runner's coming past me, I'm like, okay,
01:47 where is he holding the ball at?
01:49 Am I gonna get an opportunity to punch the ball out?
01:51 So I don't full out punch in practice, but I'm running that through my mind.
01:54 So I put myself in those scenarios before it happens and
01:56 then game time presents itself and then I try to make the most of the opportunity.
02:00 >> When you look back at that play, I mean, did you know that you're getting this out?
02:04 >> Once I seen how he was carrying the ball, cuz he kinda put it out with two
02:08 hands, I'm like, he's gonna try to reach for the pile on and
02:10 I knew as soon as he reached, I was gonna punch it out.
02:12 >> Not everybody has the athleticism to be able to make that play though.
02:15 I mean, is that something you just always have in your wheelhouse to be able to do
02:18 that right there?
02:19 >> Yeah, like I said, you gotta visualize it.
02:21 You gotta see it before it happens.
02:23 If you don't have a plan going into it, you won't just go out there and do it.
02:26 You gotta have that stored in and
02:27 you just gotta make the play when it presents itself.
02:29 >> You've been consistently good all year long, but
02:32 it does seem like you've taken it to an even other level late in the season.
02:38 How has Antoine Winfield Jr.
02:40 changed since the last time you guys faced the Eagles?
02:44 >> I feel like a lot has changed.
02:45 It's been a while since we played them.
02:47 It's gonna be a fun go around as we face them Monday night.
02:50 And I just can't wait to go out there and perform.
02:53 >> Are you seeing the game even differently though with all these plays
02:56 that you've made or has it slowed down even more for you since?
03:00 >> Yeah, I mean, the more you play, the more I feel like it slows down, but
03:03 it is still the same game.
