1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,880 Speaker 1: It felt great. I mean, I think just even the way, 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 1: even the way we had to win to kind of 3 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,760 Speaker 1: get out of this rut UM, I mean, down seventeen 4 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: zero and first half UM and just had to overcome 5 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 1: a lot and it really took all phases. I think 6 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: every every part of our team. UM made some huge plays. 7 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: UM offensively made some big plays, big stops. Defensively, obviously 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: special teams did a great job acting the return game, 9 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: UM rally making that kick at the end. All that, 10 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: I mean, every phase played a partner. I think that's 11 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: what makes it great too. It's not like, you know, 12 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: the offensively defense had to carry us for this one. 13 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: That was just everybody playing together. Nobody panicked when we 14 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: got in that hole early UM, and just it was 15 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: obviously it feels good to win one. Dugs talked about, UM, 16 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: they need to find a way to find learn how 17 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: to win and maybe even learn how not to lose. 18 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: Do you think this can be like maybe a launching 19 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: point for you guys or spark of now we figured 20 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: out how to win these close games. Yeah, I mean, 21 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: obviously that's that's what you hope for. And I think that's, 22 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: you know, that's something that we definitely learned, and I 23 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: think more so kind of getting over that hump as 24 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: far as just um that feeling of being able to 25 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: win this close games and and especially like I said, 26 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: being down seventeen nothing early, there was really no panic, 27 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: no one. I mean, we knew we were gonna win 28 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: that game. We just had to you know, it was 29 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: kind of go time at that point into the first half. 30 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: Put together a scoring drive on offense defense. You know, 31 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: we get the ball back, um, you know, the kind 32 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: of the middle eight we talked about into the first half, 33 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: beating of the second half, get the ball back with 34 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: you know, forty five seconds and kick a field goal 35 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: and then come out and score first possession of the 36 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: second half. And then from there, I mean, defense stone 37 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: him in the second half. So really just playing complimentary ball. 38 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 1: Obviously not every place, and to go your way. There 39 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: was plays today both sides of the ball that that 40 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: that the other team made. You know, we had to 41 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: turn over early, um, and we were driving in the 42 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: red zone and you know, obviously you don't want that 43 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: and we'll learn from that one. But that's like stuff 44 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: is gonna happen in games, and you gotta be find 45 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: ways to overcome them. And I think that was the 46 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: coolest thing is we found ways overcome the to day. 47 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: It's not like played perfect, but um, we found a 48 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: way to win. So we're gonna go win that game 49 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: because that doesn't just just the belief and I think 50 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: the whole energy this week, Um, we knew we we 51 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: kind of knew we had to go get this one 52 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: this week. Obviously, Um, you don't try to put more 53 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: pressure on yourselves and than you need to, but everybody 54 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: knows that you know where we're at right now in 55 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: our season, we really gotta we gotta turn the same 56 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: around and get some wins. So we felt that and 57 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: just had a lot of confidence in our prep. And 58 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: I know, offensively, obviously we didn't score the first three possessions, 59 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: but I mean, honestly, it wasn't it wasn't it really 60 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: anything they did that stopped us. We just kind of 61 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: shot ourselves in the foot. Um and obviously you know 62 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: that they made the play. But uh so we knew offensively, 63 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: once we could just eliminate some of those airs early 64 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: and keep a drive going, we were gonna be fine. 65 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: We thought our plan was great, and you could see 66 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: today everybody kind of we were rolling. So it was 67 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: awesome Driver, talk about the work of the offensive one 68 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,839 Speaker 1: because you look so comfortable back here today. They kept 69 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: to glean for the most part tell us about was 70 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: that the best game you've seen them playing? Fun? Shoot, 71 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: they've played. I wouldn't necessarily say that just because there's 72 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: been There's been a lot of games this year where 73 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: I think they've they've played great. Um, pretty much every 74 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: game I thought they've they've played good enough for us 75 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: to win, and and just past game, run game, all 76 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: all those things that the guys up front, that's where 77 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: it starts, both sides of the ball. I mean, that's 78 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: that's where the games won. And obviously they had they 79 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: had some some really good players on the edges and 80 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: that was a challenge for us this week. And and 81 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: really just seeing those guys step up like they do 82 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: every week was was awesome to see. And um, yeah, 83 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: it was great. I thought we handled it well. They're gonna, 84 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: like I said, it's never gonna be perfect. That that 85 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: team is paid to play too, and they're gonna make plays, 86 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: but just kind of battling through the adversity was was awesome. 87 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: Trevor over here, what does it say about your ability 88 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: to bounce back. How important is that for a young quarterback? 89 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: You know, you didn't play as well as you wanted 90 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: to last week, but then come out and play the 91 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: way you did today. How is that important for you confidence? 92 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: And then just you know, development wise, just a part 93 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: of growing, you know, I've you know, some of the 94 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: guys in some of the Raiders, guys like man, I 95 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: gotta get the ball so fast, Like I've had to 96 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: learn the hard way, you know. So I've I've learned 97 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: my lessons. You know, that's still a lot more I'm 98 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: gonna learn years to come and games to come, all 99 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: those things that it's a growing experience. But um, I 100 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: think just for my for my confidence, for the team's confidence, 101 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: just for us to be able to balance back as 102 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: a whole and and go and win this game, especially 103 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: under the circumstances that we were in early. Um, I 104 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: think it says a lot about um yeah, myself, but 105 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: also just this whole team. And we got a bunch 106 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: of fighters and guys that aren't gonna quit. And uh, 107 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: same thing, Like I told you guys, we started two 108 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: and one and one, those two games back to back, 109 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: and we're playing great. It doesn't really matter what other 110 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: people say. It's always about us and that's what coach 111 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: has been saying to us. And obviously we've had some 112 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: ups and downs this season, but it's a long season. UM, 113 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: so you know, we're just looking forward to being able to, 114 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully ride this momentum and use this juice 115 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: this week. Obviously, we've got a big game in Kansas City, UM, 116 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: great challenge for us. So we'll enjoy it today and 117 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: we'll get back to work. To one. Hey, Trevor, talking 118 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: to Dewey in the locker room, he described it as 119 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,119 Speaker 1: everybody had to kind of surrender to what's going to happen. 120 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: Not surrender like give up, but just surrender to things 121 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: are going to happen and we have to react. Number one, 122 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: do you agree with that assessment? Number two? For you 123 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: as a quarterback? How much how difficult is that to 124 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: be thinking of a million things but also be like, Okay, 125 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take it as it goes? Yeah, I mean 126 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: do he's been has been awesome voice in our locker room. UM. 127 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: Some of the stuff he's he shared with us has 128 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: been has been really good. And he's right. I mean, 129 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: this game you can't play tight. You can't be worried 130 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: about the next play, you can't be worried about what 131 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: happened to last play. It's just that specific moment and 132 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: doing that over and over again for the whole game. 133 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's what you saw today. You're not 134 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: gonna win every single moment, but if you can, if 135 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: you can flip the page and go to the next 136 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: one and forget the last one, that gives you the 137 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: best shot to win. And I think our whole team 138 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: did that today. Obviously there's there's plays you're always gonna 139 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: leave out there and you learn from those. But um, yeah, 140 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: that's that's huge, just not playing tight, playing loose, just 141 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: being yourself. And I think most most of are all 142 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: the guys did that today. So it was fun. There's 143 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,239 Speaker 1: been moments leading up to today that maybe you yourself 144 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: and played a little didn't immediately go to the next 145 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: page at times, and so maybe, like you know, this 146 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: was growth today. Yeah. I think there's always. There's not always, 147 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: but a lot of times there's there's plays, and there's 148 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: a couple, a series of plays or a few plays 149 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: that you're streaing together where you feel like you might 150 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: have been thinking about the last one, or you didn't 151 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: feel like you didn't move on quick enough from the 152 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: last play if it was you know, good play, bad play, 153 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: whatever it was, and just trying to That's what we 154 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: on the offense we talked about a lot is just 155 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: each play is its own play and just moving on 156 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: to the next one every time. That's what talked about 157 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: with the guys up front, and we kind of remind 158 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: each other throughout the game, next play, next play, So 159 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: you know that's that's the key, and it's easier said 160 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: than done, but you kind of saw today what it 161 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: looks like when you when you're able to do that. Trevor, 162 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: how much is that work the other way over? How 163 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: much does that work the other way? I think you 164 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: had fifteen in a row at one time completions with 165 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: the spike in there, you know, so it probably doesn't 166 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: get out of this fifteen or like, like, did you 167 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: know that? Do you feel that, like even though you're 168 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: coming in out series of different drives, feel that just 169 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: the next play? It just feel the momentum that you 170 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: have that, I mean, the momentum is so big in 171 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: this game, and um, it's real, like everyone can feel 172 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: that that's in the stadium and obviously had no momentum 173 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: when when they went up and scored a couple of 174 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: times and we had a punt and a turnover, whatever 175 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: it was. And then when you flip that momentum and 176 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: can keep it like we were able to do today, 177 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: obviously that's huge that plays. That plays a big part 178 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: in this game. Um, But just as far as managing 179 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: your emotions when you're on the other side of that 180 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: momentum when when they have it, how do you manage 181 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: your emotions? How do you play each play as its 182 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: own um to kind of get out of that whatever 183 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: it is, you know, whether it's a couple of three 184 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: and outs, you know, a couple of bad plays, miss throws, 185 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: whatever it is. It's just how do you manage the 186 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: next play? And I think, like myself, I feel like 187 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: I it that well today, but I feel like our 188 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: whole offense and our the whole unit did it well, 189 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,239 Speaker 1: so it was great. Do you think the early runs 190 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: helped you? Um, like runs from myself you're saying, I mean, 191 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: that's just each game is different. You know, there's gonna 192 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: be times, there's gonna opportunities where I can use my 193 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: legs and today it was one of those times, and um, 194 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: just giving us some space. And there's a couple of 195 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: times when I dropped a bunch of guys out underneath 196 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: and took some things away, and UM, so just use 197 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: my legs when when I can. But I think, yeah, 198 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: that's that's something I've talked about before. I like doing that. 199 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: I like, you know, being able to affect the game 200 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: that way when it's when it's necessary, when it's needed, 201 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 1: And um, I think think it helped us to say 202 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: I just want more. Trevor just wondering was there some 203 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: validation too after the fumble off first pitch play and 204 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,599 Speaker 1: getting stopped on the second pitch play for Travis to 205 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: score the go ahead to be to go ahead touchdown 206 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: on another pitch play, was there some validation for you 207 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: guys on the pitch plays in particular, but also for 208 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: Ducks play calling. Yeah, it's just it's it's the same 209 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: message I just mentioned. Is it's all about us. You 210 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: know that you look at those plays and everyone can 211 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 1: say this on every play each team, but it really is, 212 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: you know, we control what happens, and there's all these 213 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: these players, whether it's a a TfL it's a fumble. 214 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: I mean we control that, and it's something where you know, 215 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: someone missing assignment, didn't make the play whatever, not a 216 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: great pitch to hasty on the one um, that's all 217 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: stuff that we can control. And the same thing in 218 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: the positive way when you when you kind of make 219 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: the flip and you start playing really well, and it's 220 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: just shows the coaching staff how they trust us and 221 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: didn't let any of that affect the game. You know, 222 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: we just kept playing. I don't think we we never 223 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: shelled up and kind of got conservative and try to 224 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: get out. We just kept playing and I think that 225 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: was that was really cool to see and I know 226 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: the guys are fired up, so awesome. Thank you all.
