Cam Jordan on Falcons, benefits of bye week | New Orleans Saints

Y’all went 10 straight weeks. How much did you need to get away in We didn’t I don’t know. We just won. Come on. I’m trying to build up on good times and now we’re in the hate week. Like, you know what it is for me. Can’t stand people. Falcons. Full f full. Watch your mouth. I had to fools is what I was about to say. Fire trucks. Fire trucks. How much what I was going to say how much momentum maybe can be derived from having a win right before the by week and like kind of taking that momentum into this I don’t know you had a whole seven days off so guys feel fresh I’m sure we’re going to get some guys back that we we’ve we’ve missed um guys that were feeling achy you know going 10 weeks strong for anybody uh that that could take some time and um you know it all comes down to for this game comes down to a little bit of luck a lot of grit and a lot of will and I think again this locker room has nothing short of amazing with the with the season that we faced, how we haven’t seen people fall off, fall out. Um, guys have been locked in and we just have to be able to be able to close these games. We’ve had games where we should have closed. So, momentum, sure, let’s call it whatever you want to. We beat Carolina. Carolina goes, beats Atlanta yesterday. Um, so we feel like, you know, it’s it’s it’s time. Do you feel like you guys might have figured out some things with your run? I’m not going to put it on anybody or anything right now. We are focused on us. Uh, I think we’re locked in enough to get that win last week. You take seven days off. Hey, we we’re feeling fresh. It’s time to go get it again. Well, I’m saying your run defense. So, like, did you guys make improvements that you think can keep I hope so. I hope so. Look, uh, albeit you say you when you’re stacking wins, you understand how you how you’re winning. We put two together. So, I know how we win. You know, we we win the turnover battle. We eliminate we eliminate penalties that start off drives on offense. We eliminate the penalties that extend drives on defense. I know exactly how we can win. We just have to continue to prove it. That’ll that’ll tell me if we’ve improving or not. Yeah. And I know you don’t want to give the Falcons any credit, but is this I don’t give a gosh darn piss about the I don’t give a piss about nothing but the tie, baby. When you faced Bejon and and Tyler, phenomenal running back the best tests for you guys. Yeah. I mean, phenomenal running back. I think, you know, Carolina has a a great great back. I think we’ve we’ve faced the Rams. We face Seattle. We’ve we face a lot of top tier running backs. Um and Bejian is a top five running back. probably top three. I mean, what he’s able to do with the ball is special because he faced the Rams and the Patriots and all these different teams early on. Everybody with these these Yeah. these records right now. Yeah. It’s crazy. What do you think the value of that is kind of the the back half here of weathering the storm early or I don’t know anything beyond this week. Look, I I’ve never known the entire schedule, so I couldn’t tell you what’s going to work on the back end. I know we got Atlanta week coming up. I know it’s Monday and by Sunday, we better be fully geared up by Wednesday. I mean, I came in off the bye-week knowing who we had. I got to talk to Matt Ryan yesterday. I said, “I’m facing a quarterback just like you once Michael Penn.” I mean, whatever. It’s official. Yeah, I think so. Wait, you can’t say it’s official, by the way. Oh, wait. I think so. Cat season ending injury. Oh, no. You hate to hear that. I thought he just heard his like little stub. He’s be out for a week or two. You know what? Um, shout out to the to the young gentleman. Um, you hate to hear a season ending in injury. Uh Kirk O change is back and you know I’m sure we’re going to get his best like always somehow some way. Yeah. No matter what happens whenever whenever team plays us all of a sudden everybody’s healthy. Everybody’s throwing amazing to that point. I mean obviously Penn is out believed believed to be out is going to be out as well for this game. What happened when he fell when he fell on the uh the deep bowl? I believe so. He’s lightkinned. Things happen. Does the familiarity help with Kurt? Uh, I mean, it just depends. You know what Kirk can do when he’s playing at at his optimal level? He’s getting off the ball another two and a half seconds. It’s annoying. There’s a reason why he’s been he’s been a staple for the league for so long. Um, yeah, we’re going to have to put a game plan together going Monday. Guess what? We don’t have a I don’t know of the game plan yet. I’m going to try and ask what I asked again earlier. Is there value of facing come back those like the Rams and the the Patriots early? Like do you feel like there would have been value had we been had we had we added to the winning solution? Sure. U when you’re losing you know what you don’t want to happen. Um when you’re when you’re winning, you understand how you get there. I mean it’s a lot like you know you look over at Denver and how they beat the Chiefs. Doesn’t matter how you get there as long as you are able to finish them out. We haven’t been able to finish things out on the flip side. So where where we feel like we should be whatever seven and three whatever whatever it is we’re now sitting on the 2 and a side whereas you see Denver closing out those games. You see Carolina closing out these closed games we have to be able to close out these close games. So I see value in the wins. Yes. When we get a lead we haven’t given it back yet. We got to find a way to get a lead. Okay, what’s been been your approach to by weeks in terms of the negotiation between relax or not relaxing but resting and getting well but then also like saying oh I tweaked my I tweaked my ankle two weeks ago so I knew what it was for me. I was rehabbing you know um so I finally felt great right before I took off. Did some medical network did some CBS right when I was like oh I can run again. So it’s great. It was great for me. I look forward to it. Got a little got a little run in little uh with the with the team 30 minutes ago. Felt phenomenal. I said, “Oh, we’re back, baby.” Did you have to stay here? Cuz I wanted to. Sure. I don’t know if you I mean, did I play Sunday? Okay. Yeah, that’s how it works for me. All right, then. Good. Great. I will see.
