HEAD COACH SEAN PAYTON )On if the team lacked energy) “I didn’t feel like it was energy. We were awful on third down. We really couldn’t get into a rhythm. It’s something that we’ve got to be better at, really in all three phases. Overall, penalties were not too bad, but in the kicking game we had three of them that were critical. I’m proud of the way that we fought back in the second half; we played better football, not exclusively, but at times made enough plays to win the game.”

(On his thoughts on Chargers QB Justin Herbert) “He’s a good, young talent. You can see that you do not really feel like you are playing against a young player. He is someone that gets the ball out of his hands. I think that he has a promising future. He is impressive to watch.”

(On how large the roughing the punter penalty was) “That’s a possession penalty, and, yet we’ll take a peek at it on film. There’s always that tough decision, I think, that if you rush the punter for the official to make the call (either) roughing or running into, but all of them (penalties) were significant. Fortunately, we overcame them.”

(On his impression of Emmanuel Sanders) “I thought that he played well. We started getting the ball into his hands a little bit later into the half and then into the second half. I thought that, overall, he played well. I thought (Marquez) Callaway played well, playing a lot of snaps tonight. We probably didn’t get Tre’Quan (Smith) as many touches tonight as we would’ve liked, but, overall, we found enough offense in the second half, really in the fourth quarter, to get the win.”

(On if the team can carry over any positives into next week) “Every week, you look at it. It’s a win. There are a number of things that we have got to clean up. We’ll get back to work here next week. We will be in tomorrow. We will be in the next day. We will be able to address some of the things that we feel like we haven’t done well and get ready then to start playing after the bye.”

(On if the team made adjustments in the second half or if it was better execution) “They (Los Angeles) did a good job of giving us a few different looks on the early downs. We got a little bit more pressure from their defense. I think that we made a few plays down the field (in the second half). The third down throw to (Jared) Cook was a huge play; I don’t know what the distance was. I know that it was third and long. It was a great find by Drew (Brees). Defensively, we got the stop there, especially on the fourth down play there at the end. I thought we hit their quarterback enough. He is pretty athletic. He got out of the pocket a few times and made some plays. There were a lot of different elements to the game, but it was good to get the win.”

(On if Michael Thomas will only be suspended for one game) “I will keep you posted. That is something that we will discuss and we will let you know when the time is right.”

(On if the absence of Michael Thomas altered the game plan) “We will talk about the players that played tonight.”

(On if Taysom Hill’s versatility make his rushing touchdown possible) “It was a good play. It’s, kind of, a run/pass option. They covered it fairly well, and, yet, when they do that, you have that one extra player relative to the quarterback that can carry it. That was a good way to finish that drive.”

(On the long reception by Alvin Kamara late in the game) “It was a pretty big play. It was, kind of, a little choice-route-pump. It was a good play over his head. He, kind of, hit the target a little bit on the defender. The kick return in overtime was (also) a big play. It brought us out across the 30 (yard line) and gave us a little momentum.” (On his thoughts on the pass coverage busts) “It’s play that we’ve got to clean up and it’s, kind of, a post spear. We’ve got to get on top of one. It’s something that we will be able to clean up. It is something that we have to. Like I said, there are a few things offensively and defensively that, I don’t want to say plagued us, but we haven’t been as good at in the first quarter of the season. We’ve got to improve in those areas.”

(On if a win can mask some of the issues that show up on film) “No, we try not to let it either way, a win or a loss. The film is important for us to make the corrections and teach from. That is really the essence of what we do at the beginning of the week is make the corrections. We talk about that race to improve and to get better. We are in that race.”

RUNNING BACK ALVIN KAMARA Just curious what you saw on Taysom Hill’s touchdown that tied it up late. And, for him how big was that touchdown do you think?

“I mean, we worked it all weekend. Taysom (Hill) obviously is a heck of a runner. It was a pass play but, I don't know if he heard me but before the play, I’m like, don't be scared to run it. I think he was motioning to somebody or saying something to somebody else. But, I did my little fake and I looked back and I saw he was running and I was like, touchdown, already knew it, so. Like I said he's a heck of a runner, heck of a player. That was big for us.”

Can you tell us about the big pass reception you made there late in the game, down the sideline and where does that catch rank among your best catches you've made?

“Drew (Brees) put it, he gave me the best chance to be able to catch the ball. And I just tried to focus on it and try to get it. I knew it was gonna be, gonna be kind of like a crunch time play. I just tried to keep focus on the ball. Tried to lay hands and I came up with it, thankfully. But that was a big catch.”

Was there an adjustment after that interception from Drew (Brees)? I guess it kind of seemed like the turning point where you guys started to execute a little bit better. Was anything different you did or was it just kind of locking in and doing things you needed to do?

“You just lock in. We couldn't really get into too much of a rhythm throughout the game. So it was one of those games where we just had to battle the whole time and just fight and claw and scratch. That is one of them times where who dat nation, that's when we need our fans in that stadium. I mean, that's, that's huge. But the fans we did have, they did their part, we just, we just need some more. But we just fought and we just got a grimey win, we had to do that.”

Do you need to start faster? I know it's hard to answer that right after the game but it seems like you're building out from a 14 point deficit or whatever is not ideal?

“Oh, that’s not hard to answer. We definitely got to start faster. We got to get our offense and what we want to do. We got to get going faster, get in the rhythm faster, just be efficient, within what we want, within the plays we want to call so that's on all of us. We all got to get better. That's on me. That's on Drew (Brees). Everybody, we just got to execute.”

With Deonte (Harris) out, Marquez Callaway was at kick return, punt return and he was used more on offense. How would you assess his play today?

“That is my (little) brother. Me and Marquez (Callaway) went to Tennessee together. So I know he has got it in him. I just talked to him and just tell him, you know, make a play, just go do something, go do something. So you know, his name was called, and he did what he had to do, it’s next man up, he's playing well. He's getting comfortable more and more as the games go on. And I'm happy to see it, because I went to college with him. So that’s fun to see that.”

We have watched some of your offseason workouts and you're balancing on things and catching stuff. Do those kinds of workouts help you with making those plays, like the one you made on the sideline?

“Most definitely. I mean, I can think of three drills that my trainer Sharief made me do in the offseason that, is that ball right there. You know what I’m saying. So, as much as I was tired of seeing Sharief and doing all these drills and stuff like that as the offseason dwindled down, that's what we do it for. So definitely like I said, that's what we do it for.”

You mentioned clawing and scratching and kind of that feeling, in this game. Have you felt that a lot more this season? Do you feel like you guys have kind of hit your stride or do you feel like that there's still things that you got to figure out coming out of this bye?

“There’s definitely things we still have to figure out. It is hard to win in this league. Every week is a challenge. There's no game we're going into like oh yeah, this is easy a win. You know we go into a game, like, we’re trying to get the desired outcome, which is a win, but you know, we know we have got to come with our A game every game. So you know, some games are faster starts than others. And some games we, you know we are getting what we want more than other games, but you know, it is what it is. It is a different flavor to every game and tonight was just, it was, it was a dirty, dirty, dirty game. So we just had to, like I said, claw and scratch and come out on top.”

LOS ANGELES CHARGERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2020 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME NEW ORLEANS SAINTS QUOTES

DEFENSIVE END CAMERON JORDAN That touchdown pass to Jared Cook, I think was the first time you threw to him all game, what does that say about him just staying focused and locked in and being ready when the moment was called?

“Yeah, absolutely. No it just, it just kind of played out that way. You know, he was part of the progression quite a few times, but just wasn't able to get a ball prior to that. And listen, big moment in the game, obviously needed. That touchdown ended up tying the game, it brought us back from 17 points down to tie it up. And obviously, we felt like, we were going to go win the game at that point, but 3rd and 15 or 16 I think too. And, it played some nice coverage. And he's really kind of on a clear out route, but just kind of had my eyes on him in my periphery and felt like they were flat-footed and he could get by him. And it was great for him to get by him and get that big play.”

This is only the second win of your career in a game, you were trailing by 17 points. The other one was against the Dolphins in 2009. Were you aware of that?

“Yeah, but 2011, 49ers playoffs, should have won that one, we were down 17, came back. Playoff game against Minnesota, down 17, , should have won that one. So, I know there's this exact number of 17. But I'm sure if we clumped in like the thirteens, fourteens, fifteens, you know, there'd be quite a bit more. But no, I mean, listen, bottom line is we were not playing Saints football in the first half, you know. We were, we missed a lot of opportunities. We were bad on third and short situations that would have sustained drives. You know, we made some mistakes in the kicking game that, you know, pro long drives for them. And just, you know, obviously had a turnover that gave them seven points. At the end of the day, we're down 20-3. And we made a bunch of mistakes a bunch of self-inflicted wounds. And I think, second half came out and man, really dialed in, execution, both in the passing game and the run game. (The) Defense came up with some big stops. And obviously, we just scratched and clawed our way back.”

With this potentially being the last time that you may play your former team, how does it feel for you to go undefeated against that team?

“Listen, man, I’ve got great memories from my Charger days, you know, 2001 to 2005, played with some pretty amazing teammates and coaches and obviously that fan base. It’s a shame they're not in San Diego anymore. I'll say that one more time. But no, obviously, all those games have been significant, ‘08, ‘12,‘16 and then 2020. I’ve really had some great games against them. Every single one of them has come down to the final drive in the game. So, that's significant.”

After coming back from 14-0 last week and 20-3 this week, I suppose you could go glass half full or glass half empty? What is your take on this team as you head into the bye at 3-2? Is this an underachieving team? Or do you feel good about where you guys are after those two wins?

“I’d say there is always room for improvement. We obviously want to start faster, we definitely want to start faster. And understand again, what wins and loses football games. And I’d say the first half, there were too many mistakes that get you beat. Too many mistakes that get you beat. We shouldn't, shouldn't have had to mount the comeback we had to mount in order to win this game. But at the end of the day, these are growing experiences, these are learning experiences. We do have some guys that are continuing to grow and develop into certain roles. I'm really encouraged, by the way that (Marquez) Callaway played tonight, special teams and on offense, he did a phenomenal job. I know there's some guys on defense and special teams doing the same thing as well. So at the end of day, man, we're still growing and to have wins like this, you know, where you really have to fight to win, just like we did last week to overcome that 14 point deficit. Tonight, to overcome that 17 point deficit. These are, this is how you grow as a team. This is how you become battle tested. And I think it pays dividends as you move along here.”

That Taysom (Hill) touchdown to tie it up even later, like 50 seconds or something left in regulation. How big was that for him, especially since the game didn't necessarily start the best for him personally?

“No, he had a great game all the way around. It was a big play. Obviously, it shows the confidence that we have in him, that Sean (Payton) has in him, put him in a critical third down. And he kind of had a run pass option and made a great decision, got in the endzone and tied the game.”

We've been talking for like the whole season about Emmanuel Sanders and how he’s going to fit in this offense and everything. How is your connection right now? It seems like he's kind of been your go to guy lately.

“Yeah, listen, he's, he's a weapon, he can do a lot of things. He's a savvy football player, he's played a lot of football. He understands the game, you know, he understands so many things about how to run, how to run certain routes, how to get separation when the ball is coming. Obviously, we've been able to spend a lot of time together. I think we didn't really get an offseason together, we didn't get preseason games. So, you get into the season. And obviously, Mike (Thomas) goes down. And then it's, you're just kind of trying to find your rhythm and your timing with not just him, but with everybody. And I think, obviously, here we are week five, but I think you've seen over the last two weeks, just how that's progressed. And what a huge part of this offense he can be.”

How disappointing was the situation with Mike Thomas and as a leader of the team, do you feel the need to maybe address it with him one on one?

“I've spoken with Mike (Thomas). Mike (Thomas) and I talk a lot, both in person and in the locker room, through text message. We're always communicating. And so, at the end of the day, Mike is a big part of this team. And he is going to be a big part of this team moving forward. We had an incident, and Sean (Payton) addressed it. And many of the leaders have spoken with Mike (Thomas) as well. And we're going to be all good.”

What do you think was the toughest thing to be able to find rhythm early on in the game? It seemed like before that two minute drive before the half, it seemed like things were just kind of sputtering off of that, do you kind of relish winning in that type of way, just personally having to grind it out?

“Yeah, listen, these are growth experiences. I mean, it's certainly nice if you could just go out and score a bunch of points in the first half and then just cruise to victory. But as we know, in this league, man, you’ve got to fight it out to the very end. And this is the way most games you know, finish, with the final possession. Now, most games, you don't get in a 20-3 hole based on just mistakes and not playing really great football in all three phases for the first half of the game. But again, these are the, these are the tests though, that I do feel like, they really bring a team together. And give you confidence and give you momentum and really kind of shape you. And certainly give you confidence moving forward in the future. Because we're going to have plenty of games that are coming down to the end. And we know if we can put ourselves in a position to win that we know how to do that.”

It seems like we asked you about Alvin (Kamara) every week. But what did you kind of see on that catch, he made on the sideline on that next to last drive?

“That was a great catch. I just felt one on one, and put it up and give him an opportunity. And obviously he jumped up and made a great play.”

LOS ANGELES CHARGERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2020 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME NEW ORLEANS SAINTS QUOTES

DEFENSIVE END CAMERON JORDAN (On Justin Herbert) “Young kid out there taking a lot of hits today.”

(On Alvin Kamara’s great catch) “That’s a grown man play. We know hes ‘a special player. He makes special plays. Those are wonderful. It’s like when you have to beat a double team to get a sack. I know that it’s like that feeling. When you go snatch one over the top on a crucial down and make a big play for your team, that’s huge.”

(On Trey Hendrickson’s play) “If I am taking doubles, he’s getting singles. He finally got a little bit of chip life. He came over to the sideline and said, ‘They chipped me.’ I said, ‘Welcome to this life. They’re starting to respect you.’ We’ve got to win our singles. We’ve got to create this uncomfortableness for quarterbacks.”

(On if the team attacked more or if everyone was winning their matchups) “There was not a chip every play. There was not a nudge every play. They decided to leave their man on an island for a second. Crazy what happens when you catch those one-on-ones. You have got to win your one-on- ones. That is all that it comes down to.”

WIDE RECEIVER EMMANUEL SANDERS We could see you, after making some of those catches tonight, trying to get maybe the sidelines some stuff or showing some energy. Was it difficult tonight because of the lack of no crowd here to get into this game? “I love playing football and I just hope when I am out there on the field people can see that. Yeah, obviously my job is to bring energy. Every time I make a catch and we are moving the ball, obviously it puts pressure on the defense. This game is about momentum and it sways left and right, left and right. I'm always trying to shift that momentum to our side and get guys going and get guys to understand that we can win this game and we don't have to make it close. That's what I'm about. But at the same time, sometimes I'll be losing my mind out there a little bit because I just love to play the game. And I'd be excited to make plays because I work so hard during the week and it feels good when the hard work pays off.”

Speaking of momentum, when Taysom (Hill) came in and ran it in, that was apparently a pass play. What did you see there? And how big is that for him and all you to tie it up? “When I saw him run in I was excited, trust me. At the end of the day, it is all about winning games. Taysom brings a different element for us, right? He can run the ball, he can pass the ball and defensive coordinators (have) got to scheme for him. To see him, get, I think that is his first touchdown of the year. It is amazing. And hopefully we can build off that.”

First of all, what was your immediate reaction when that field goal hit the upright? “I was obviously happy, but I knew it was time to go. It was go time and I was hoping we could win a coin toss, because I just knew that we were going to go down and get some kind of points. We were able to do that and we're able to win a game and going into the bye week with a dub, you can’t beat that. I’m going to be feeling good during the bye week.”

You said when you came here, a number of times, you wanted to be in a pass happy offense. Is today exactly what you're talking about? That's exactly what I was talking about. I think that's the most catches I ever had in a game. That feels good, something to build off, and we got the win in it. So that's all that matters.”

It seemed like you really dominated during that second half, I think maybe 100 yards or close to it. What opened up for you coming out of half time? “I think Sean (Payton), he just wanted to target me and get the ball in my hands and it feel good. That's everything you want as a receiver, right? That's why I came here. For Sean Payton to look at me and I know the play call is for me and me and Drew (Brees) working in sync. It happened tonight and it's something to build off of and what's even better we’ve got arguably the best receiver in the world coming off from his performance of last year coming back to us. For me him to work together and try to take this offense to an even better level, I just feel like the sky's the limit.”

I'm just curious, you kind of mentioned Sean Payton. I mean, at halftime, did he not like the first half that he called it all? Or did he did he feel like he needed to switch things up at all? “That is just Sean. He honestly believes in four quarters of football. So he came in, he just said, ‘Let's go win. Let's come back.’ That's what we were able to do. And he believed in it and stuck with his plan and everything started opening up in the third and fourth quarter for him.”

TIGHT END JARED COOK What did you see on the crazy touchdown you had on that 30-yard catch? "The underneath covers is kind of running with me. But the safety was tilted to us to the receiver side. And then the back side corner was just kind of sloughing and lagging off. So my job is just kind of get over to that other side of the field and open it up for whoever's running the seam behind me and I just kind of got over top of them and I think drew got a little flushed in the pocket and rolled out to his left. He was able to hit me in stride. It was a beautiful throw, right over the top of the backside corner and before the safety got there."

Was there something you guys did is an adjustment it seems like that after that interception, things kind of really started opening up and rolling for you guys a little bit more on offense. “We just tried to continue to push the tempo. It didn't change too much. It's just making sure we stay in it and don't let them take us out of it.”

When you're going through a game, a touchdown was your first target. What do you have to do to just like stay focused and make sure you're not getting away when the ball’s not coming your way? “I just try to have fun. You don't get a lot of opportunities like this, you know? So I just try to enjoy myself and just do what I can and listen to the music, sing along to the songs and encourage the defense and encourage my team and stay in.”

When you got hurt, did you think at the time, you are going to be able to come back this quickly from injury? And are you playing through a lot of pain right now? “When you get hurt you always you always think about how fast you can come back. And it's like one of those things you kind of take for granted sometimes, right? So you try to get back out there as fast as you can. It still bothers me a little bit but I'm not really worried about it too much. I just like to go out there play have fun (and) give the fans what they need. It would have been nice to do this in front of our fans and I hope that we can do that in a couple of weeks when it's a little bit more of a packed crowd in the house.”

There are several times throughout this game where it looked like Emmanuel Sanders was just kind of like vocally after catches just trying to create energy for the offense. How much do you feel like you guys feed off of that and have to do that with no fans in the stands continually? “I think it's huge. For me personally, I think it gives me momentum because if I see another one of my teammates and they’re getting hype and up getting hype after a catch. It made me want to go out today and eat too. It made me want to get my groove on just like they are so for Emmanuel Sanders to be able to out there and just continue to look to the sideline keep hyping us up. He was getting on their nerves too. So I think it's used for us and I think that continues to build momentum for us.”

HEAD COACH ANTHONY LYNN (On Justin Herbert’s performance): “Justin made some good plays. I thought he executed and made some good plays. We did not win the game, so I am not too excited about complimenting anybody right now. I thought the kid di some good things though.” (On his message to his team): “I never would have thought this team would have lost four in a row, but I was on a Charger team that did and that team came back fighting. I expect this team to come back and do the same.” (On Keen Allen’s status): “Keenan went out with lower back spasms. That’s the last I heard. I know that he couldn’t go. He came back in and tried, but he just couldn’t go.” (On not having Allen on the field): “It affected the whole football team. He is one of our playmakers. He’s a good football player. KJ (Hill Jr.) came in and had a chance to make a couple of plays. I thought he made a couple of catches, but it’s different. KJ’s playing outside. He’s normally playing inside. We moved some guys around. It took a minute, but I thought the offense found their rhythm late in the second half. We put some points on the board on the big play that Justin threw to Mike (Williams) that gave us the lead. We did miss Keenan though.” (On Michael Badgley missing the kick): “That young man’s been kicking outstanding all year. He missed an extra point today and he missed a field goal. I’ll be the first to say that he has to do better. We could have done some other things better as well.” (On Casey Hayward injury) “He played three quarters and then was hurt. I’m going to find out more when I get back to the locker room.” (On losing close games) “The guys are putting themselves into position to win these games. We are just not finishing the games. It’s not one thing here or there. I could give you a ton of excuses, but I’m not about excuses. At the end of the day, we need to get it done and that’s on me.” (On running the ball on first down a lot) “Sometimes it just works out like that based on the front and the coverage that we are given. Justin may have to check to a run or stay in a pass. It’s the way that it played out tonight. (On how they defended Alvin Kamara) “I think for the most part we did a good job of containing him until late in that game.” (On teaching the team to close games) “This bye week couldn’t have come at a better time. I think this team is going to get a little healthier. I look forward to what is going to happen next. I believe in the locker room I believe those men will bounce back. We have a lot of football left ahead of us. I believe we will get this ship corrected and moving in the right direction.” (On any reason why Michael Badgley is off this year) “It’s not at all because in practice he has been kicking outstanding. He’s healthy. His leg strength is better than it has ever been. He has been kicking good. He just missed tonight.” (On what went through his mind on the missed kick) “It was frustrating.” (On the stagnant offense in the third quarter) “We came out and try to establish the run game more. We were having trouble protecting. My quarterback was running for his life a little bit. We tried to establish the running game to help him out. They stood up. We made some mistakes too, but they stood up and they stopped us. It happens. Sometimes you go back and forth. Our defense stopped them a few times. I thought we eventually picked it upate up the clock and got the score.” (On getting the running game going again) “I think a little continuity is going to help. I know the average was good, but the efficiency wasn’t where I wanted it to be.” (On what adjustment the Saints made at the end of the first half) “They executed. We gave up a third and 14 with a ball over our head. We got beat in coverage. That is all that there is to it. We got beat in coverage. Their guy executed and our guy didn’t. This inexcusable, but that’s what happened.” (On Herbert’s poise) “We can use him to help the offensive line. We have to get more mobile plays. Sometimes it’s hard when he is stationary. He has shown he can extend plays. He can pull the ball. That was just him creating tonight and extending that play.” (On exploiting Marshon Lattimore) “He’s a really good corner.I know he has been banged up a little bit and they try to put him on our best starter. Mike (Williams) came down with the ball and he didn’t. We know Mike can do that.” (On if there is one area that frustrates him) “The guys did a lot of good things. They out them in a position to win the game. We didn’t get done. That’s what is frustrating. It could be the kick. It could be the 3rd and 14 touchdown. It could be the missed extra point. All of these things played a factor in the game. Overall, we just have to do better. We have 11 games left to turn this around. We know we can play with anybody because we have been doing it. We just have to finish the games.” (On the resiliency of the receivers) “We know that they weren’t at full speed, but they did the best that they could. We spot played them and they did contribute.” (On if something happened to Sam Tevi) “Sam got poked in the eye, so Storm (Norton) had to go in there for a little bit. I think Sam will be just fine.” (On keeping morale up) “This is our job. Our job is to play football and win games. It’s what we do for a living. I’m not worried about the morale. We have the right guys on the team. We have the right guys in the locker room. I have no problem with our character. I have no problem with our leadership. We have to go back to work and fine tune the details. Once we win one of these games, I firmly believe they are going to come in bunches. I can’t wait. We can’t wait to get back to work.” (On if Rayshawn Jenkins came out during the Jared Cook touchdown) “Rayshawn has been on the field every single play. If he wasn’t, then it was because something must have happened. We were in a certain coverage. The guy must have beat us in a man coverage.”

LOS ANGELES CHARGERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2020 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME LOS ANGELES CHARGERS QUOTES

QUARTERBACK JUSTIN HERBERT (On the loss): “It’s definitely a tough loss. It hurts a lot to be so close these last four games. I know that we are going to go back. Things are going to change. We just have to keep attacking and know that the wins are going to come.” (On battling back): “The third quarter was big. We needed to put more points up and we did not. We got off to a quick start, but we just haven’t played consistently all four quarters. We unfortunately didn’t do that. It’s a learning process. We are going to learn from it. Losing is horrible. I know that we are going to turn it around. This team is sticking together. I know we have the talent to turn it around.” (On if the bye week comes at the right time): “We’d love to be playing next week to get back out on the field. The bye week does come at a good time. We can get some of those guys up front some rest. We’ll be watching some film and getting ready for our next opponent.” (On the play to Mike Williams at the end of regulation): “It was a designed play. Anytime you see Mike Williams on the sideline with one on one coverage, I know that I am going to go to him. He is one of the best in the game. I have complete faith in him. I know he is going to make a play on any ball that I throw up in the air.” (On getting over the hump): “It is going to take more than what we are doing now. It is going to take 30 minutes more of stretching, weightlifting, and watching film. It’s little bits that add up in the long run. I know we are really close. If we work hard and do the right things, good things will happen. I love the way this team battles and I know that we are going to stick together. Losing is tough. It always is, but we are going to learn from it. I know we are going to stick together through this.” (On getting compliments from Sean Payton and Drew Brees) “it is a huge compliment. Those are two people I look up to a lot. It means a lot to hear that from them, but I’d love to get the win. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen today. I know we’re going to stick through this and keep getting better.”

New Orleans Saints Defensive End Marcus Davenport Video Call with New Orleans Media Monday, October 19, 2020

How did it feel being back on the field last week? And just knowing that it seemed like you were about ready to come back and had a little setback, how frustrating is that to you? “It was great to be back last week, just being able to go out there and support and physically help with the game and all that. But, it's just one of those things, you just got to keep on going with time and take my time, you can't rush it. And as far as the little setback, it was just that, a setback. I'm just lucky, I'm still able to keep on going and you have to take it like that, one day at a time.”

Why do you think Trey Hendrickson’s been so successful to start the season and also what's it sort of just been like watching him play like he has so far? “Well, listen, I attribute everything to opportunities. I know Trey. I believe, with many more opportunities, especially over the past couple years he could have been throwing up the same kind of numbers. And shoot, even now, I love seeing his growth, and he's only gotten better. So it's just one of those things that drives you and it's always great to see your teammate and your brother, just getting what he deserves. I know, he wants more, and I want more for him. But it's just great being able to see this.”

On the flip side, what have you seen teams when you've been watching film, doing to Cameron Jordan that have kept him from getting to the quarterback as much as the past few years, if anything? “Shoot, double team, triple teams, sometimes shift the whole O line over to him, wide receiver chips. It's just one of those things where he's a beast. So you’ve got to try to stop him anyway that you can. And I think that's just been something that we as D line have to work through. And it's not necessarily that he's not getting there, it’s they're making it just a little bit harder. And you can see, he's killing it, he's starting to get his thing and stack them up. So, yeah that’s just it.”

Do you think you've seen more of it this year than even your last couple years. And do you invite the idea of sort of making teams pay for doing that? If they're going to let you and Trey (Hendrickson) have more? “Well, yeah. Yeah, yeah. You know, you can definitely see it, especially in the beginning part of the season, but, you know, that's just a sign of respect. You got to take away best players. And that just gives us more opportunities, like you said, me and Trey (Hendrickson) Carl (Granderson), just everybody else kind of feeds off of that, because, they're going to put that attention (on Jordan). Like you said, we got to make a play.”

How do you feel like you graded out in the limit snaps in the last game? And how close to yourself do you feel like you are? “For the most part I feel like I did well. But good’s the enemy with great and that's not enough. I didn't think that there was really any mess ups or things like that. It was just little technique things, things that I need to play through, to kind of develop again. But shoot, when you say close to normal, my new normal has changed. So, it's just kind of been a process of growing, I'm not the same player, so I just got to build upon that.”

How long did it take you to knock the rust off and kind of get into a groove? “I feel like, against the run, I love that. Really, I feel like, for the pass, it just takes a couple plays, but I just got to get that consistency back and then working the rush plan.”

What do you mean by your new normal? What's the new, new normal for you? “(My) New normal is, shoot, just me currently, I can't necessarily relate to or not necessarily not relate, but I can't think of the same players last year. I've gotten bigger, stronger. I got some (new) game film under my belt. So, I’ve gotten progression there. That normal kind of relative and so, what I say is, as far as y’all, what y'all see, I'm not that same player. So I have to keep on going.”

I know you've had to miss games your first two years. So, having that start, are you worried about that, like being a thing for your career for yourself? Is it something where you just like, hey look, I have to be healthy to be on the field? Like, how do you kind of view the injuries in your career so far? “So far, I feel like somewhere, (it) could’ve been prevented a little bit better by me as far as just like, little tape jobs and stuff. But for the most part, I think a lot of it’s just things that come and go. Nobody really wants to be hurt. And I think the biggest part is I wanted to be there from the beginning, and things happen, and they kept happening. But that's not something that I can necessarily let get me down, there's too much on the line for us, as a team. And I just need to be out there to progressively get better and apply what I can. So as far as the long term, shoot, I think that’s just easy to answer, do what I can, you have to do what you can to be there and be available.”

Not sure if you've seen how your teammate, your former teammate Teddy Bridgewater, has been doing in Carolina, but I was curious if, what exactly is going through your head knowing you have the chance to sack Teddy, when you were just on the same team last year? “Shoot, I thought that was a cool aspect, especially getting to watch him play. It’s a great thing to see your former teammate, thrive and do pretty well. But, you know, at the next point, we got to go for the win. So that's exactly what we're thinking, we're looking for everything we can and that's what we plan to do.”

When you're out there you do you feel like you see a difference in the way those shifts are on the attention goes to the other side of line, do you feel like it evens out, it seems like you were going to get in on doubles in this game, and then even a triple, do you feel like you take some of that pressure off the other side? “I feel like as a D line, they're going to try to stop this anywhere you can. I feel like we got the players that that’ll be a problem. So they adjusted accordingly. And even when, sometimes we got protection, sometimes you’ve got a one against two. And I feel like, as far as they're paying their respects to us by trying to block us with more. So, it's just one of those things you got to win when you can, and we got the weapons for that.”

You just mentioned Teddy (Bridgewater) a minute ago, but what were some of the things, you know, characteristics of his that stood out as a teammate, that made him so likable and so, you know, well received by teammates? “Teddy, the thing that stood out most was his energy. Teddy always talked about being blessed to play the sport. And you see him, you see what he's doing (and) you see what he's done. And you just kind of feel that in a sense too. It's a blessing to be here (is what he emphasizes). He brings a different kind of energy that makes you excited, he's always trying to talk to everybody and get to know everybody. So he’s just one of them real teammates, like I said it’s blessing to see what he’s been doing, too. I know we can't wait to get after him, so. Yeah, it's great.”

New Orleans Saints Tight End Jared Cook Video Call with Local Media Monday, October 19, 2020

I'm sure the bye came at a good time, but whenever Mike Thomas is able to get back, and you've had time to get a little healthier, and seems like Emmanuel Sanders has gotten used to the offense, how excited are you guys for how close this offense will finally be to being in rhythm with a complete cast of characters? “It's always good when you can get guys back that you were missing and you can be able to click on all cylinders. I think it'll be good and kind of a good test for all of us coming back and coming back full speed just to kind of see where we're at, not only in the game on Sunday, but also this week. It gives you an opportunity to get reps with the guys that you're accustomed to working with and just continue to get better with those guys and learn your timing with Drew (Brees).”

Was there any one thing you guys wanted to work on in particular in the bye or even focus on after that kind of break? “The most important thing was kind of a self-evaluation of where we are now and in comparison to where we should be as a team. And we realized some of the ones we let go and some of the plays we let go, we are a lot better than that. And we are a lot better team than we displayed on a lot of different drives that we have had thus far throughout the season. At this point, it's about getting better from those things we already self- evaluated on, and learning how not to make the same mistake over again. I think it came at the right time. I think it kind of, like we talked about before, it got guys a chance to get their legs back up under them a little bit more, kind of get rested. But at the same time just kind of reevaluate the season and how it's gone thus far.”

How close do you feel like you guys are to achieving that level in some of those things you located? And are they easy fixes? Are they deeper seeded problems? What's the process there? “That's always kind of hard to tell. Coach (Payton) said it perfectly last week, ‘We're still in search of that perfect game, right?’ You're always in search of that perfect game to where all three phases are clicking, offense, defense, special teams, guys aren’t making mistakes, and everybody's just kind of playing lights out. You never know when that's going to happen and you always continuously prepare for that. But things happen in the game quite often you just have no control over or that are out of your control. You are always searching for that perfect game. And once you get the one perfect game, you always want to continue to have one and kind of stack them and back to back so you're always clicking as a team. I think we're still searching for that. And I think even once we have that perfect game, good teams never rely on that perfect one or are satisfied with that perfect one. They continue to search out for an even better game they can have so I think we’re still searching for that.”

Is it weird to be talking about it like in this tone and through this prism when you guys are averaging over 30 points a game? Is it that bad when you're scoring that many points? “No, I don't think it’s weird. I just think that's the nature of the league. I think a lot of teams are putting up points this year. A lot of teams are playing pretty good offensively. And I think what really matters is the guys in this building, in the locker room offensively to know never be satisfied and where can you always improve and get better. I think it's more about the guys on this team and in this locker room, because that is how you are really going to get better each and every week going into Sundays.”

Was the bye spent any differently for you this year than in years past just with some of the rules and whatnot about where you could go or what you could do this year? “They gave us a pretty thin line on the things we could do. It was quite uneventful. A week off or a few days off is a blessing in itself, but just uneventful just in the way that we still have to be here every day for COVID testing, we still have stick around, there are fines if you miss a COVID test, so guys really aren't able to sway too far, which can also sometimes could be a good thing. But it was a little bit because my family's not down here right now. So it's tough on weeks like this, you get to see them for a few days and then they go back instead of taking a trip with him somewhere and taking them out. COVID has really kind of put a damper on quite a lot of things. But if we want to continue to season, if we want to continue to ball, those are the sacrifices that we have to make. So it wasn't a lot of eventful things going on. Just kind of hung around and spent time with the fam.”

At least they got to come in for a few days though. “Absolutely. My kids are ready to tear up the house over boredom a little bit. But the fact that I got a chance to get my hands on them and hug them and spend time with them, you can’t buy that anywhere else.”

Was there anything different from Teddy (Bridgewater) than some of the other quarterbacks you’ve worked with? Is there any aspect of his personality that you just don't see in other guys who play the position? “Teddy's positivity and energy he brings to practice and work everyday’s unmatched. Always positive, always on to the next play, always happy man. I think what Teddy went through in Minnesota, it was unfortunate and terrible. But I think it also made Teddy an even better person, just from his outlook on life and positive activity. Because once he stepped into the huddle, a lot of times he brought that positivity with him. No matter what was going on through those five games last year, when Teddy stepped in the huddle it was all business, and he just had a sense that everything was going be okay. Even though everybody around us was panicking, the whole world was worried about what was going to happen without Drew (Brees), when Teddy stepped in there, it was just such a positive vibe, and it was just all, everything was going up. That's who Teddy is and I think his past experiences have helped him become that type of leader to where, just trust in me, things will be alright. I think he definitely has the arm and physical and mental attributes to continue to do that and keep playing well. He definitely deserves it.”

Maybe this is like reading into things a little bit too much and you guys probably feel this way for a lot of guys who get big contracts to go elsewhere, but it seemed like everybody was really, really happy for him to get that opportunity, get the big pay day after everything you went through, even if he's going to be the quarterback for a division rival. “Yeah, absolutely. I think his life alone is kind of what this league stands for and kind of what a lot of guys go through in terms of the battle of time and the battle of injury, versus being out here on the field. And that's about resilience. I think through his life’s story, and through the things he went through with him still being able to come out on top and conquer and be successful to be where he's at now, I think that's kind of the story of most players in this league of being resilient and fighting to where you want to get and never taking no for an answer. We're all happy for him, of course, he definitely deserves it, for sure.”

Did you have any opinions about playing in Tiger Stadium if it came to it? I know that it would be a change of scenery to maybe be playing in front of 25,000 fans, just how do you feel about all this and how has this circulated this week? “This morning was kind of the first time I've heard about it. It was just kind of like on a pass by type situation in the locker room going out of practice just now. I'm not really sure. It'll definitely be a different vibe if that does become the case. Playing at home, there’s nothing like it, but the chance to be able to play in front of fans, I think it'd be pretty cool as well. A little change up.”
