I'm 0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:48.360 Nordo from nine to noon. How you doing recapping yesterday's 0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.040 Vikings game? And it is four in a row for 0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:53.840 Kevin O'Connell and the Minnesota Vikings. They beat the Atlanta 0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:57.280 Falcons yesterday thirty one to twenty eight. They now improve 0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:00.880 to five and four through nine games. And this is 0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:02.920 the first time that they've had a winning. 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:04.280 Record in twenty twenty three. 0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.480 So from all those fumbles and weird losses starting out 0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:09.680 oh and three, they go four and one through October, 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:12.240 and they find their way to victory on the road 0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:15.520 in Atlanta yesterday. And it was a game that started 0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:18.520 with a fifth round rookie and Jaren Hall under center 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:22.360 for the Vikings, and it ended within a recently acquired 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:26.840 quarterback in Joshua Dobbs, who barely knew anybody's name, didn't 0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:30.080 know most of the plays, and he found his way 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:34.240 to victory, found this team's way to victory. It's unbelievable 0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:37.240 some of the things. It's nothing if not always entertaining 0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:40.800 for a team very much in the NFC playoff race, 0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:43.640 a wild card team. The Vikings currently are at five 0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:47.520 and four. Next up the New Orleans Saints. Some injury 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:50.480 concerns and things that took place yesterday. I'm going to 0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:52.920 play back on the other side of this next segment 0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:56.400 a nice portion of Kevin O'Connell's press conference with the 0:01:56.480 --> 0:02:00.880 media from earlier this afternoon, highlighting and getting some updates 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:01.960 and some of the players that were. 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:02.960 Nicked up yesterday. 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.160 Hey, Justin Jefferson's able to come off ir and maybe 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:09.320 start practicing and playing again, even as soon as this 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:10.680 weekend against the Saints. 0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:11.680 Is that gonna happen. 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:15.000 You're gonna hear some updates in some conversation and clarity 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:17.880 there from the head coach. But first, in what is 0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:21.520 just yet another weird one the Minnesota Vikings and the 0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:25.639 Atlanta Falcons yesterday, let's rewind to the action. The Minnesota 0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:29.400 Vikings defense gets to start yesterday as they get on 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:32.160 the field and they force a seven play twenty two 0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:34.720 yard drive that ends in a punt. So we like 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.360 the way that started. And then it's time for Jaren Hall. 0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:40.720 Jaren Hall comes in tough spot for him last week 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:44.120 against Green Bay after the unfortunate achilles injury to Kirk. 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:45.560 He gets a couple of series. 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.560 There's a stripsack in the mix, cool third down conversion 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:52.520 on his next possession to TJ. Hawkinson. So you didn't 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:54.480 like some things. You liked some things, but now he's 0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:58.440 had an entire week to start well. Vikings offense goes 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:02.480 three and out. Falcons would respond a five play thirty 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:06.160 four yard drive. Nice long connection from Taylor Heineke, the 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:09.080 former Viking. There were all sorts of connections and backup 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:12.080 qbs in the mix yesterday. Former Viking never took a 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.600 snap in a game, but certainly a member of the 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:17.320 team for a couple of seasons twenty fifteen and twenty sixteen. 0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.000 Taylor Heineke hits Cadaril Hodge and they settle for a 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.840 young Way coup fifty plus yard field goal. Fifty two 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:27.720 yarder that makes it three to nothing halfway through the 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:31.519 first quarter. Now second possession, Jaren Hall still under center. 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.359 It's nine plays, It's seventy four yards. 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:35.600 And a couple of nice connections too. 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.560 Johnny Munt with a catch and run and Alexander Madison 0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:40.360 for nearly fifty. 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.400 Jaron Hall with an empty backfield, four man rush. He's 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:44.440 gonna fade one right. 0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:47.160 Cott took a thirty five thirty Hangles took. 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:50.600 The left and is taken down inside the twenty. Alex 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:55.600 Sander Madison with a long catching run forty nine yards 0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:57.560 first down for the Vikings. 0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:01.320 Vikings offenses movie and Jaren Hall is orchonstrating all of it. 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.440 Later in the drive, they get a first and goal 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:03.920 at the one. 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:06.720 Then they move backwards, still having trouble running the ball 0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:07.720 inside the five. 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.600 The Vikings offenses and it's third down. 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:13.720 Jaron Hall is trying to close the deal with his legs, 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:17.040 and for the second time in two games, tragedy strikes 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:18.080 the quarterback position. 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:22.880 Hall shot downe three receivers left to right, takes the 0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:25.040 snap four man rush. 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:27.000 Hall steps up looking to run. 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:29.600 Paddle to the metal leap through the end zone, and 0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:30.799 he came up short. 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:33.200 He got smacked at the goal line. 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:36.600 Jaren Hall slow to get up, and many members of 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:39.520 the Vikings training staff have come out on the field 0:04:39.960 --> 0:04:43.520 to chat with the back, with the quarterback who used 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:45.320 to be the backup but now he's the start. 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:47.640 I was so excited for better or worse. It could 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:48.719 be great, it could be awful. 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.920 I was excited to see Jaron Hall take the reins 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.120 of this offense with a full week of preparation and 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:54.359 see what the kid has. 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:55.159 But he suffers a. 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:59.600 Concussion on his second series yesterday and he's forced out 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.000 of the mix from that play, and the Vikings are 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.680 then forced to settle for a field goal from the 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.320 one yard line because they're still trying to scramble and like, hey, 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:11.480 Joshua Dobbs, we did not intend on you playing today. 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:14.680 Now we got to get you ready to handle the offense. 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:17.040 It's three to three with about two minutes left in 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:20.480 the first quarter. Vikings defense does their job. They force 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:23.720 a punt from the Falcons, and now we're seeing Joshua 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:26.839 Dobbs plays all those games for the Cardinals earlier this year. 0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:30.920 Career backup is Joshua Dobbs, brought to the Vikings via 0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:34.640 trade on Tuesday, and as I mentioned earlier, jokingly but 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:37.880 kind of seriously, he doesn't know everybody's name. He hasn't 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.320 taken snaps from Garrett Bradbury yet cadence in terms of 0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.919 calling the plays at the line, getting everything organized. 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:44.720 This is all new. 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:48.279 This is all on the fly, and it started off 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:49.520 a little bumpy. 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:51.880 Third and twelve from his own five and a tie game, 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.640 Dobbs takes the staff he's looking out to the left 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.880 from the end zone, steps up added to safety. The 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.919 Falcons have trapped josh Dobbs in the end zone for 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.080 a safety and have taken The Braves have taken a 0:06:05.120 --> 0:06:06.800 five to three lead over the Plans. 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:11.320 Yes weird score five to three Falcons early second quarter, 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:13.560 and the safety means now the Vikings have to actually 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:15.920 punt the ball back to the Falcons. So the Falcons 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:18.960 go on offense. They have a ten play drive cam 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.000 Binde them nearly had a pick on this drive by 0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:24.080 the way, couldn't close on it. Taylor, Heineke's gonna give 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:26.200 you one or two balls every single game, and you 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:27.120 need to take those. 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:27.839 Now. 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:31.240 We did later but early on an opportunity to keep 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:34.240 points off the board. Falcons go up eight to three 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.800 after another young Way cool field goal about midway through 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:42.039 the second. Now, second opportunity for Josh Dobbs and this 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.880 Vikings offense. You heard bumpy before and it only got 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:47.040 rockier this time. 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:48.679 Dobbs under deep trump protected. 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:51.080 Okay, Now he scoots away from the pressure and he 0:06:51.160 --> 0:06:53.479 looks to throw the wall and it came out and 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.240 it's picked up by Lorenzo Carter inside the ten to 0:06:56.320 --> 0:07:00.039 the five, stopped at the three yard line. So the 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:05.080 Vikings have lost another fumble. The Vikings now have lost 0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:06.640 eleven pumpholes this year. 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:11.880 The defense down yeah. 0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:14.240 Fumbles have been a problem for Josh Dobbs half the 0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:17.040 season with the Arizona Cardinals. Earlier this year, he had 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.480 eight lost fumbles, and in just his second possession in 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:23.280 Purple he's got one under his belt. Now for us. 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.040 So Falcons take over. It's first and goal at the 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:28.800 one yard line and they have some self destruction to 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:32.040 them Atlanta does they immediately get a false start? It's 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:34.560 Chris Lnstrom. Now they're backed up to the six yard line. 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:38.080 And props to the defense yesterday keeping the Falcons to 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.200 field goals instead of touchdowns. You see the final score 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.720 line thirty one to twenty eight, high scoring game, but 0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:46.600 the defense stood talk in a few spots, including this one. 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:49.520 They keep the Falcons to a young way who field 0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:52.960 goal inside the five and it's eleven to three late 0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:56.560 stages of the first half. Now Vikings ball, they're taken over. 0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:59.360 They need they just a one score game, believe it 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:01.800 or not. As weird does this thing's already been. They 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:04.960 go on a thirteen play seventy five yard drive to 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.880 close the gap, and it doesn't happen without our new 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.720 QB Joshua Dobbs making plays like this. 0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:14.080 This is third and ten from the Falcons thirteen, trailing 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.640 by eight deep on the first half, left by josh Dobbs, 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:18.080 who takes the pratt Berry snap. 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.560 Here's a big blitz and Dodds is able to get 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.360 away from the Blitzer prints out right. Now he gets 0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:25.080 to the twenty to the fifteen to the. 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.600 Ten ef fluid buck by cam Akers and Dops is 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:33.360 inside the five. Wow done cam Akers, I mean, I 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.240 know it's dob doing all the running and the elusive 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:39.160 nature of the quarterback first down leads to an eleven 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:42.800 yard first down run. How about cam Akers with the assist? 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.520 It was a great block by cam Akers, who sadly 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:49.160 would leave the game later on with a devastating season 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.960 ending achilles injury. But he was in the game there 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:56.199 making plays and Alexander Madison catches a touchdown pass. 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:59.640 Christian Jackson in motion to the right. kJ Osborne out 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:03.520 of the game. Dobbs under center, trailing eleven three play action, 0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:06.600 boots out to the right. He's looking for Madison, pep 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:09.160 pell Madison touchdown. 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:11.599 Leander. 0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:15.679 That touchdown comes with less than a minute to go 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.120 in the half and after the extra point, a lot 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:19.920 of people wishing they would have went for two, but 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:23.360 the extra point makes it eleven to ten in favor 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:27.520 of the Falcons at halftime. Vikings excited, Vikings fans excited. 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:29.319 I know, I'm sure the coaching staff was in the 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:32.480 locker room trying to continue to give that crash course 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:34.240 to Joshua Dobbs on the offense. 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:36.640 Vikings fans are like, all this stuff is happening. 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:40.120 We got injuries. kJ Osborne leaves with a concussion as well. 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.680 I mentioned Cam Akers who would leave earlier with an 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:44.080 even more significant injury. 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:46.720 His team is hurting, and somehow they are very. 0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:49.240 Much still in the mix with an opportunity to beat 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:53.000 the Atlanta Falcons. But in yesterday, all the cool stuff 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.400 that you're going to get to hear Joshua Dobbs doing 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:58.320 on the field that came with some of the less 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:00.400 perfect moments, including. 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:01.960 First possession of the second half. 0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:05.920 It is another fumble loss by Joshua Dobbs, giving the 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:09.880 Falcons the ball. Young way kup with another field goal 0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:13.000 on the day after the Vikings defense stands tall, and 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.319 that's kind of how the third quarter started. You get 0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:18.880 the fumble from Dobbs, then both teams exchange field goals. 0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:21.680 The Vikings go on an eight play sixty one yard drive, 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:24.079 takes about four or five minutes off the clock. So 0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.360 midway through the third it is fourteen thirteen, so not 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:30.520 a lot has changed there. But then every once in 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.120 a while with this defense and Brian Flores and how 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:36.960 good everything's been going with that defense, when you blitz well, 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:41.000 sometimes you can get caught. And John hu Smith caught him. 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:45.160 And for Atlanta six penalties forty two yards. Heinike back to. 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:49.080 Pass girls right taught John hu Smith fifty forty farside 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:57.160 twenty touchdown Atlanta a sixty yard touchdown Heynikey Tojhanu Smith 0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.840 and the Falcons have taken a twenty fifteen lead. 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:03.719 Extra point makes it twenty one to thirteen with just 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:05.560 under seven minutes to go in the third quarter. 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:06.480 Getting a little sweaty. 0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:08.800 Now, Vikings offense responds with the three and out, so 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:10.080 you're starting to count the clock. 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:12.520 These weird up and down Falcons have an. 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:15.920 Eight point advantage, and you got Joshua Dobbs still trying 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:18.640 to figure out what you actually got in him, and 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:22.480 that's where you stand. But Vikings defense a Caleb Evans 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:25.599 very first play of the ensuing Falcons possession. After the 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:29.240 punt punches that ball out, Josh Mattelis recovers it, and 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:31.480 one thing this team's been really good at doing over 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:34.640 this four game win streak is turning turnovers into. 0:11:34.520 --> 0:11:37.439 Touchdowns, and that's exactly what they do. 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:40.960 Josh Dobbs goes out of the shotgun, puts Brandon powllin motion, 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:44.560 poor receivers, dops looks left, shakes the shoulders, gets away 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:47.400 from the pressure, right, pumps on a Falcons linebacker, shakes 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:51.679 the tackles to fifteen to ten. Just down, Josh Dobbs. 0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:58.520 Let's go twenty one nineteen Atlanta. It's an eighteen yard 0:11:58.679 --> 0:11:59.520 touchdown run. 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:05.959 The new kid in town, Shosh tops turnovers into touchdowns. 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:09.560 The athleticism of Josh Dobbs to cap off that six play, 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:12.840 forty yard drive. Looking at the two point conversion, it's 0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:14.240 Tristan Jackson. 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:16.320 In the end zone for the two. And it's twenty 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:18.319 one twenty one, which is a couple minutes to go 0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:21.160 in the third quarter. Now it's the defense's turn. Let's 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:21.720 force a punt. 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.960 Let's get the Vikings offense back on the field, keep 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:26.800 this train moving and take the lead. But forget the punt. 0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.760 How about Byron Murphy just takes one away from Taylor Heineke. 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.679 John new Smith in motioned to the right, Heinekee back 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:36.480 to pass nnerception. There it is we knew what was coming. 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:40.440 Hyron Murphy turns it up to the thirty carside twenty five. 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:44.040 Hey's not a pounds at the twenty two yard line 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:47.720 and the Minnesota Vikings, in the game tied to twenty one, 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:52.360 have all the momentum on this midnight train to Georgia. 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:57.040 Vikings ball deep in Atlanta territory, but the offense gets stuck. 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.600 Cam Akers, with a nice play to move the chains, 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.720 gets some inside of the red zone, but then once again, 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:06.120 not only is he hurt on this possession, but they 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:09.840 are left with another Greg Joseph field goal. Fourteen minutes, 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.040 eighteen seconds left on the clock, Greg Joseph good from 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:16.800 thirty one yards and the Vikings have their lead twenty 0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:20.240 four to twenty one. Now fourth quarter teams exchange a 0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:22.640 couple of punts, but then this was a moment where 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:24.959 at some point you thought the Falcons might be able 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:28.040 to pull away. They went on a thirteen play seventy 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:31.319 nine yard drive, took seven minutes off the clock, and 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:35.280 right around the two minute warning, the Falcons grabbed the 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:36.000 lead back. 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:37.240 Seconding goal from. 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.760 The five for the Atlanta Falcons, Offset I left behind 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:41.680 high to keep back through out here he has learning 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.600 inside the five rinds his way into the m zone. 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.959 Touchdown and Atlanta Falcons it is Tyler ral Jeer with 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:51.400 his third touchdown this season. 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:53.719 And now it's twenty eight twenty four Falcons just over 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:56.720 two minutes to go. Vikings have two timeouts left. They 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:59.679 have to drive and score a touchdown to win this 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:02.920 one one with Joshua Dobbs, Well, how. 0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:03.720 Does it all play out? 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:07.800 How about eleven plays seventy five yards that included moments 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.800 like this from rookie Jordan Addison, josh Dobbs. 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:13.240 With two receivers left and right, Madison to his right, 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:16.360 four man rush. Dob steps up, He's gonna fire right 0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:21.760 and caught at the thirty five by Jordan Addison right 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:24.920 next to the sideline, right on Jeffriokuda. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:28.120 One of the more gorgeous sideline toe tapping catches you're 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:30.920 gonna see from anybody, more or less the USC rookie 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:33.680 in his seven touchdowns in his first eight and now 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:37.400 nine games with the purple big play by Addison, But 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.520 the moment of the game prior to the go ahead 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:44.120 touchdown was a fourth and seven, and once again Joshua 0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:47.920 Dobbs finding his legs, his feet, and his will to win, 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:50.560 carrying him across the finish line. 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:54.120 On fourth and seven at Vanda Blitzers, Dobs, He's gonna 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:55.800 be hit as he throws. Can he get away from me? 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:56.080 Yes? 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:58.600 He does now on the right look at the right side, 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:06.080 looking down five twenty Dobbs riding to the ten get 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:07.400 he cut out of bounds. 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.520 Holy cowt With this, Josh Dobbs and a couple of 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.360 plays later, need to get into the end zone.
