Speaker 1: Coach has been a while. The first possession, you take
Speaker 1: it down and you score points. Um, how did it happen?
Speaker 1: And how did it feel for you? It felt great, um,
Speaker 1: And I think you know, you look, it was a
Speaker 1: good good mix of running pass. I think we we
Speaker 1: we you know, I leaned more towards the run, I
Speaker 1: think in the first that first drive, but you know,
Speaker 1: it was it was it was well executed drive and
Speaker 1: it's something that uh uh, we haven't had much success
Speaker 1: this season, and it was good to put one together
Speaker 1: to start this game. You got Golden Tat involved early
Speaker 1: in the football game, he scored that touchdown. Talk about
Speaker 1: how you're finally incorporating him and how comfortable he's getting
Speaker 1: in this offense. Well, he's getting real comfortable in the offense.
Speaker 1: And and and I believe that was a broken play
Speaker 1: that Carson actually scrambled and found him in the corner
Speaker 1: of the end zone. It was a great play by
Speaker 1: Carson as well. And you know, he's just he's a
Speaker 1: veteran player that really is just. Um, he's unselfish. He
Speaker 1: just wants to help this football team win and whatever
Speaker 1: his role is. And um, you know he's getting more
Speaker 1: comfortable and and we'll just continue to uh, you know,
Speaker 1: increase more and more. But one of the things tonight,
Speaker 1: I think from Carson standpoint, was the fact that utilized
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of targets, a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of players on offense in a passing game.
Speaker 1: And that's kind of what you need to have, that
Speaker 1: kind of balance. He was able to spread the ball around.
Speaker 1: What was it defensively from the Ridskins that you wanted
Speaker 1: to take advantage of in this game? Well, we knew
Speaker 1: this is a good this is a good defense. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, especially against the run. They're there, their tremendous
Speaker 1: run defense, and they they they crowded the box and
Speaker 1: they've got a really good, big, physical front two gap
Speaker 1: style of defense. And um, you know, we felt like
Speaker 1: it if we could control the line of scrimmage, Um,
Speaker 1: we could we could really do some some some good
Speaker 1: in the In the run game, I thought, you know,
Speaker 1: Jeff Stallin put together a really good run plan and um,
Speaker 1: and then and then getting him in and it was
Speaker 1: really eleven personnel to run and it was twelve personnel
Speaker 1: to throw. It was kind of the kind of the
Speaker 1: theme a little bit. But um, guys, just um you know,
Speaker 1: they came to work this week, they executed well, they
Speaker 1: understood the game plan, and it was good to say
Speaker 1: how big was the screen game in tonight's game, because
Speaker 1: I thought you got some big chunks in the screen
Speaker 1: game we did. Second half of the game. I used
Speaker 1: quite a few screens actually, and um, you know, I
Speaker 1: think none bigger than the one Corpy had to start
Speaker 1: I think the fourth quarter to get us down inside
Speaker 1: the inside the five. But um, yeah, screens are a
Speaker 1: great change of pace. Uh They're a great way to
Speaker 1: um sort of solidify and they kind of calm down
Speaker 1: any kind of pressure or rush from the defense. And uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I think our screen game the last couple
Speaker 1: of weeks have really it's really improved and guys have
Speaker 1: executed well. Darren sprowls back into lineup. Good for both
Speaker 1: Darren and good for this offense. It is. It's great
Speaker 1: to see him back out there. You know, he brings
Speaker 1: a breath of fresh air obviously, and it's great because
Speaker 1: of the adversity that he's faced this season. And then
Speaker 1: you know, ultimately to get him in the end zone
Speaker 1: I think is something that he really really will cherish.
Speaker 1: I think, you know, looking back on this particular football game.
Speaker 1: But um, it's great to get him out there, especially
Speaker 1: you know with the part returns. But we'll keep integrating
Speaker 1: him each and every week. Talk about the defense has
Speaker 1: sounded a little bit. They gave up the one ninety
Speaker 1: yard run to Adrian Peterson, but aside from that, they
Speaker 1: didn't give up a to that offensive the Ridskins. You know,
Speaker 1: we kind of knew coming in that they were gonna
Speaker 1: have to rely on the run. I think, and and
Speaker 1: Adrian is as uh man, he's a he's an adress wonder.
Speaker 1: I mean, the kid just continues to play hard and
Speaker 1: and and he's have a really good season. And um,
Speaker 1: he's another big back that we've had to you know,
Speaker 1: we've had to uh tackle on these last couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: But I really thought that um our perimeter guys tonight
Speaker 1: actually really came up and did some nice things, you know,
Speaker 1: making some tackles for loss and then some some minimal gains,
Speaker 1: and um, you know it's something if we can maybe
Speaker 1: force them to pass, you know, and put it put
Speaker 1: in the quarterback's hands, that we would have a little
Speaker 1: bit of success to in that and our guys roach
Speaker 1: to that challenger you got a big one coming up now,
Speaker 1: going down to Dallas, a big week of preparation. Um,
Speaker 1: how big is that? And and talk about the week
Speaker 1: leading up to that. Yeah, you know, it's it's all
Speaker 1: coming down to, you know, this last month of the
Speaker 1: season for us. And and you know, we we've I've
Speaker 1: asked the guys to commit now to to each other
Speaker 1: obviously here at the end of the year. And and
Speaker 1: you know, um, you know, we're right where we want
Speaker 1: to be. Well, maybe not where we want to be,
Speaker 1: but but under the under the circumstances, we're right, you know,
Speaker 1: right where we need to be. And and we still
Speaker 1: get to control, you know, our own, uh the fate,
Speaker 1: so to speak. And um, you know we we know
Speaker 1: Dallas a good football team. They're they're hot right now,
Speaker 1: they're on a little they're you know, obviously on a roll.
Speaker 1: And um, we're on a short week now, you know,
Speaker 1: they're on a long week. We're on a short week.
Speaker 1: So we got to come come to work on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: ready to go. Thanks, Code's good luck.
