Postgame vs. Philadelphia, December 28, 2014



Q: Eli just said you made the right read on the interception. Did you think that it was six?

A: For me? Yeah, of course. I felt like it was Cover 2 and the route converted was cover 2 and the ball kind of got in the light a little bit and I didn’t see the safety there, so I could’ve made a play on it, but just an unfortunate situation.



Q: Just talk about the way you were able to finish this season off. Even though the team didn’t finish, you finished.

A: Well, that’s always been pretty good, man. I just wanted to finish strong and that’s just the main point about it. I didn’t want to end on a bad note, at least for myself, so I just try to come out and give my all and just leave on a positive note.



Q: What’s been the biggest difference for you?

A: Probably just more opportunities and just taking advantage of it. I just want to come out here and make plays, as many plays as possible, and that’s what I tried to do the last couple of weeks.



Q: When that ball was in the air on the last play, you said the lights kind of got in the way of it, did you think you were getting it?

A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, man. It kind of threw me off a little bit when it hit the lights. Like I said, just an unfortunate break for us.



Q: How do you assess when you take a step back? Do you assess the end of the season? Do you look at the big picture?

A: You look at everything, man. The good, the bad, what we can fix just to get better to come back next year and be a better team and get some more wins and hopefully be in the playoffs.



Q: Is it hard for a player to look at it with a critical eye, other than yourself?

A: That’s what we’re here for. That’s part of our job; to criticize ourselves and hopefully get better to help this team win.



Q: As you’ve learned the new offense throughout the course of the year and then the team started to get more production, and you got more production, is this something that you’re comfortable with?

A: Yeah, man, it’s just unfortunate we waited so late to get going. Like I said, we’ve just got to build on what we started at the end of this season and bring it to next year.

I don't know if it was TC or OBJ but somebody lit a fire under him. He really looked like a #1 receiver out there today.

I dare to say it was Odb making those around him better.
OBJ definitely elevated the play

of randle... but Coughlin's message was pretty strong and it was heard... thank god- as the kid has a ton of talent. he caught a lot of balls the last few weeks that are 50/50- tough catches and went up and got them.
He is part of the solution not part of the problem...
but i credit the coaching staff as much as OBJ for his turn around
I agree

Randle is jumping on board the OBJ train. It's catchy.
Yeah,

man.
I think it was Odell

Randle was an upperclassman at LSU when Odell was a freshman so he can't let the younger guy from the same school outplay him by such a wide margin
Odell is getting more and better attention,

but it's nice to see RR taking advantage of the opportunity. If Victor returns to even 80% of what he was, Randle will be targeted all day.
