What 28 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 3: is it like for you guys as a defense going 29 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 3: up against and preparing for an offense who you know, 30 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 3: brings that kind of mentality that they're not just going 31 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 3: to three quarters in go well, this is not our day. 32 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, from the first whistle to the last, you know, 33 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: we got to start fast and then also finish the game. 34 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: You know, like last game rest of Cincinnati, you know, 35 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: they came back and all the way into the final 36 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 2: whistle in a four quarter. 37 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 3: So there were points in this season when starting fast 38 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 3: was a point of emphasis, but not always a point 39 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: of success for the defense. Do you feel like you 40 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 3: guys have solved something there? 41 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: I feel so that's something that we always have to do, 42 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: you know, every single week. Only because we did it 43 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: a couple of games doesn't mean, you know, you just 44 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:45,119 Speaker 2: take your foot off the gas. 45 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: So we got to still be able to start fast. 46 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: But the first time Mike mentioned you guys have talked 47 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: about the word champion. How much you appreciate that and 48 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: how much again is a part of just rapping things 49 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: up for you guys as a team with your expectations. Yeah, 50 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: our expectations is that that's the first thing. Of course. 51 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: You know, saying the word or saying that in the 52 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: sentence doesn't mean anything unless you know you're able to 53 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 2: do it. So we're trying to take advantage of this 54 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: week and then build from there. 55 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: What have you noticed from the crowd this year?

So, I 117 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 4: mean this is if you're a competitive individual, this is 118 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 4: exactly the situation you'd want to be. 119 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: How much do you look at Buffalo and think, you know, 120 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: as an offense, we've got to compete full sixty minutes 121 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: because of what they're able to do to the end 122 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: of games. 123 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean their quarterback won an MVP.

So I mean, you cannot take a 128 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 4: nap out there. We heard Mike after the game is 129 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 4: a long time agoing nowt but you refer to you 130 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 4: guys as champions, he said, and compete like champions or 131 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 4: something to that affecting locker room after game? 132 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: Are you like a manifestation guy? 133 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: Like do you is it good to hear that word 134 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: and think of yourselves in that way?

But at the end of 138 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 4: the day, right, like it's just a byproduct of work. 139 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 4: It's just like doing the boring stuff the ordinary extraordinary, 140 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 4: So I mean it sounds pretty cliche, but I mean 141 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 4: there's really no secret to this thing, So you know, 142 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 4: it's awesome.
