1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just, um, my hats off to our guys,

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: our team. Um I told him after the game that,

3
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: you know, other than obviously winning the Super Bowl a

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: few years ago, greatest coaching victory, um as a team,

5
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: this one, this one's right up there with it. And uh,

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: my hat's off to our guys for just battling. And uh,

7
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: you know, as deep a hole as we dug in

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: the first half, you know there was there was you

9
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: guys have you know they've been around our team. You

10
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 1: know there's no quit in our guys. And uh they

11
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: did an outstanding job obviously in the second half, and

12
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: uh Riley kicking a ball at the end was obviously

13
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: a thing of beauty. Doug, from your perspective, having played quarterback,

14
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: can you relate and give us some appreciation for what

15
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: Trevor did tonight throwing four picks and then rallying back

16
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: with four touchdowns to get the win. And can I

17
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: played with one of the greatest quarterbacks ever and far

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: of and there were times when you know, he didn't

19
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: have a great first half and came back in the

20
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: second half and and uh we could light it up.

21
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: And and that's what that's what I love about Trevor

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: and and his demeanor and his aggressiveness and um, the

23
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: ability to just forget and move on. Um. But he'll

24
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: be the first one to tell you that it's not

25
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: it's not about him. The guys around him to made

26
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: made plays. Protection was good, Receivers were doing a nice

27
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: job being where they needed to be. UM. But you know,

28
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: from an individual standpoint, it was, Uh, this is really

29
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: a great performance by our quarterback. Coach. What does it

30
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: say about this team that they never flinched down that

31
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: much and just kept fighting back? I mean, it's everything,

32
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: you know, It's it's just what I told him at halftime.

33
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of like our season, you know,

34
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, we've put ourselves in a

35
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: hole at times, and then we've we've worked ourselves out

36
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: of it at times. And and just to have the

37
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: resiliency and the and the fight and the desire and

38
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: the um the ability to continue to play, you know,

39
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: because it could have easily gone the other way, right, Um.

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: And and that's what I'm so proud of these guys.

41
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: For um, everything is on the line, and uh, you know,

42
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: they go out and get the job done. Doug. Play

43
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: quarterbacks make their reputation, become elite guys in the playoffs.

44
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: What is this performance today say about Trevor where he's headed,

45
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,839
Speaker 1: what he can do for this franchise. I'll just keep

46
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: saying that it's a step in the right direction for

47
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: him and for our team, for our franchise. And you know,

48
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: we love having having Trevor's our quarterback. And he never

49
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he never flinches. He It just you saw

50
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: the emotion on the on the sneak, you know, on

51
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: the goal line. Um, you know, I think it was

52
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: it was at the two point conversion. You know that

53
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: you saw the emotion, right, and uh, and that's who

54
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: he is. And um, I just uh, I love the

55
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: fact that he's he's leading our football team. But it's

56
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: a step in the right It's a step in the

57
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: direction that we want this organization to go. We want

58
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: him to go, our team to go, and um, you know, uh,

59
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: we just got to continue to build on that. Coach

60
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,119
Speaker 1: Bruce Hope, Florida start our newspaper. What type of tactical

61
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: adjustments were you able to make it the half that

62
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: allowed you and your team to come all the way back?

63
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 1: I think one of them was just we had to

64
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: kind of go up tempo, UM, be on the ball

65
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: a little bit more in the second half when we

66
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: got down so many scores. There are three scores at least,

67
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 1: and and um, we just felt like we needed to

68
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: get a spark, you know, and and be up tempo UM.

69
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: And and we you know, we were just more efficient

70
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: in the passing game. And and that's what it takes.

71
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: It just takes sometimes, it just takes the guys the

72
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: desire and want to to to play better, you know

73
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: on offense. Uh, and they did. But but I really

74
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: think the up tempo stuff helped us in the second

75
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: half to kind of give us back in the football game. Doug,

76
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: could you could you talk about calling the time out?

77
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: Did you just not like what you saw from the

78
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: Chargers defensive front on the fourth and half yard Yeah, yeah,

79
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: and then electing to go outside. Yeah, I mean I

80
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: just didn't I didn't like the look that we had

81
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: for the play we had called, UM, and so I

82
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: just took the time out. Um, we reloaded, regrouped, UM,

83
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: you know, put our heads together, came up with that call,

84
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 1: and just a great effort by Travis you know to

85
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: obviously hit it off tackle there and and get the

86
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: first down, and more the risk of it going outside. Yeah,

87
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: I mean sometimes you know, listen, if they're outside, you

88
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: go inside. If they're inside, you go outside. Travis is

89
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: is a heck of a back that can do that,

90
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: and uh, with his speed and ability, um made made

91
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: a great play at that moment. Did you tell Riley

92
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: anything in particular before he went out there or did

93
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: he say anything that comes to mind? No, No, I

94
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: didn't say a word to him. And he's made seventeen

95
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: out of eighteen since that Chiefs game. Is he It's

96
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: just this guy become very reliable. I guess I would

97
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: suppose I mean, you know, yeah, I mean, you know,

98
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: obviously this is this is a big moment for him,

99
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: you know, and and for him to make that kick

100
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: under under these these uh circumstances is great for his

101
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 1: you know, his career too. And uh, I'm just I'm

102
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: proud of him for you know, battling through what he's

103
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: you know, a little shaky start to start the season,

104
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: but he's really you know, locked in here at the

105
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 1: end of the year, and and uh, nothing, nothing greater

106
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: than than that kick here at the end. Coach, congratulations

107
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: on the victory. For the question is on the two

108
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: point conversion, you saw that they got the penalty. I mean,

109
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: was it one of the things you had to really

110
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: think about should I go for the two pointer? Or

111
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: it was never never a doubt. I trust in the players,

112
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: trust our decision. I felt good about our call that

113
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: we had. Um And and you know what it does,

114
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 1: is it? It? It either a field goal wins or

115
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: you gotta score a touchdown to win. And and oh, um,

116
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 1: you know you're getting these moments and listen, you trust

117
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: the players, and you want to win the football game.

118
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: You want to do it for them. And uh, you

119
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: know they battled their tails off, so there was there

120
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: was no hesitation on that. Just to clarify, would you

121
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: have gone for two without the penalty? Probably not. They're

122
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: gonna lap it up for you here in the minute.

123
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: All right, m here coach, this is a total phenomenon

124
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: in congratulations on your success. Now coming back from halftime

125
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: doing what what's your strategy when you come back from

126
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: halftime doing that score? Is um? This is what twenty

127
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: seven is something? What what was your strategy? Strategy was

128
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: just one play at a time, you know, and and um,

129
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: you know we knew the defense was starting the second half,

130
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: so we felt like, uh, you know, defensively, we had

131
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: to get off the field at some point. We're trying

132
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: to create you know, takeaways, turnovers, things of that nature.

133
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: And and if we could, um, you know, offense just

134
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: you know, had to just regroup and and uh and score.

135
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: And we talked about possibly having to score every every

136
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: time we touched the ball, every possession in the second half,

137
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: and and um, you know, so that was the that

138
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: was the strategy. You know, we just had to it

139
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: had to be a one play at a time mentality
