1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: James down here in the front room. The end of

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: the third quarter, the Vikings tie the game at ten,

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: and it just seemed like the offense had that quick

4
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: touchdown drive. How much was there sort of a change

5
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: and approach that you noticed as to how you guys

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 1: attacked at that time. We just needed a sense of urgency,

7
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: just take the momentum back over, so we knew once

8
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: we got the ball back, we need to score a touchdown.

9
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,799
Speaker 1: So he had a few big plays and well, Josh

10
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: had a few big plays there and we got an

11
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: the end zone. It was exactly what we needed to

12
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: follow up on that. You mentioned Josh, what is he

13
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,840
Speaker 1: brought to the team, because you saw like he wasn't

14
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: really involved up to that point and then it's sort

15
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: of changed pretty quickly. Yeah, I mean it happens like that.

16
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: Sometimes you might not get the ball at first, but

17
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: then when your time's called, I mean, they we had

18
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: a lot of guys like that. They they're ready to

19
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: make the play, and he made some big catches for

20
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: us and kind of changed the game a little bit. James,

21
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: first half, I think your first two or two of

22
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: your first three drives were very long drives. Got ten

23
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: points out of that long drive in the fourth quarter

24
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: to go ahead. Do those long drives mean to this

25
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: offense because in years past, very much a quick strike

26
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: offense seems like you guys are very good at keeping

27
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: the ball away from them. Now, well, I mean they

28
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: have a good defense, and that type of defense they are,

29
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: they're gonna make you drive the ball down the field.

30
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: Every drive is not gonna be at three play three

31
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: play drive in a touchdown. So you gotta be able

32
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: to string those drives together. And whenever you can do that,

33
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: once you get the ball in the red zone, you

34
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: need to score touchdowns. Can't just turn those in the

35
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: field goal. So that was something we always empathize. James

36
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: rex Burg had returned from injury today. What was it

37
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: like to have him back in the backfield with you?

38
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: I was always plused to have you know, more weapons

39
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: back there. He's a good football player, can catch, run, block,

40
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: he makes plays on special teams too, So you know,

41
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: I'm happy for him to be back out there and

42
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: who continue to help us out. So if you could

43
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: expand on your answer, Bubb Brady in a thousand yards,

44
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: Oh well, you knew it on the field when it happened. No,

45
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: I didn't know at the time. I was reminded after

46
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: the game. But it's pretty cool for him. I know

47
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: it took a while to get there, but still a

48
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: great accomplishment. I mean he's broken all type of records

49
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: and did all the type of things. So I'm definitely

50
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: happy for him and James the other James with a

51
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: big day two touchdowns. How happy do you feel for

52
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: him as part of the running back group. I mean,

53
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: it's awesome. Not many teams he's a fullback across the

54
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: league where we are one that do and he makes

55
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: plays for us, not just blocking, he catches it. He's

56
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: getting touchdown, so I mean it's it's definitely well deserving

57
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: for him, and I mean he's works hard for us

58
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: each and every week, a fullback on special teams, just

59
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: does whatever needs to be done. So he's a great

60
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: player and a great teammate. James, as often as you

61
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: guys ran screenplays today against Minnesota, What does that do

62
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: to a defense like there is They've got a lot

63
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: of guys who obviously can get after the quarterback, whether

64
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: you have a big player or not. Just the residual

65
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: effect could slow down there rush a little bit. You know,

66
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: a lot of those guys are good pass rushers and

67
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 1: they're trying to get to the quarterback looking slow him down,

68
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: or you know, just kind of give the office a linement,

69
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: a break verse that aggressive pass rush. So, I mean

70
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: we didn't do as well on every single one of them.

71
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: I think they still helped us out. Man. Yeah, muh
