You get back in the playoffs with 66 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 3: an opportunity to, uh to take the next step, and 67 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 3: we're not there yet, you know, we've still got we 68 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: got the next game.

I 362 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 13: think honestly, we just had to take it upon ourselves 363 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 13: as players. We felt like coaches were doing enough, and 364 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 13: as players we needed to step up individually and take 365 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 13: ownership and really just battle it out. You know, you 366 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 13: had high expectations coming off of, you know, a season 367 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 13: like we did the year before, the expectations to do 368 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 13: that right again with kind of the changes that we 369 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 13: had with the same players. It was kind of like 370 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 13: our job to fix it, and I think we rallied 371 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 13: it together. We had some good times together of communication 372 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 13: and really locking in. And you know, the offense, We're 373 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 13: grateful for the offense carrying us for a while to 374 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 13: figure that out. And that's what good football teams do. 375 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 13: They just find a way to win no matter what 376 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 13: they were. They allowed us to mature as a group 377 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 13: and be competitive and finally just turn the script and 378 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 13: finally played raven football on defense. 379 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 6: What did you think of Michael Pierce's or ship Man? 380 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 13: I felt my knees hurt after watching.

Our teams 398 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 13: were full of winners and that's all we're worried about 399 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 13: is winners or excuse me, winning the game. 400 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 6: But it's nice to put it in my pocket.

You know, as you 429 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 13: get closer in my career, you're closer to the end, 430 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 13: and those chances you don't want them to slip.

I think we've been 500 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 6: through it. 501 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 10: There's been some roller coasters, have been some adversity, and 502 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 10: you know, for us, it's just being level headed, you know, 503 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 10: to know the type of team that we are, and 504 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 10: I think right now it's it's it's it's great. You know, 505 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 10: I think all sides are clicking, you know, offense, defense, 506 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 10: special teams and when you can play complete football. 507 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 6: That's what it is this time of year. What do 508 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 6: you think it was the biggest lessons team? The last 509 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 6: season ended and you don't know who you were playing 510 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 6: at as far as you're pass to the Super Bowl, 511 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 6: But how can you take that into the post season 512 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 6: this year? 513 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 10: I think for us it's just just dialing and we 514 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 10: have five weeks, just five weeks for the rest of 515 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 10: your life. Just take advantage of that and understand what 516 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 10: it is and just focus. All that matters is this team, 517 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 10: this organization, this group of men, We. 518 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: Also heard from outside linebacker a da fa O Way 519 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: he came up with his tenth sack of the season, 520 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: joined the double digit club for the first time of 521 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: his career, and he talked about the significance of that accomplishment. 522 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 6: Okay, ten sacks on the season, del digits, Just how 523 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 6: much does that mean to you? 524 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 14: It means a lot, So most sacks I got in 525 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 14: my life. I started playing late junior year in high school, 526 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 14: So I know it's ten to y'all, but it's like 527 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 14: it's a milestone of me. So yeah, it feels good. 528 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 4: Calvin no I mentioned that this was a goal for 529 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 4: you and him to both get double digit sacks, to 530 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 4: kind of get after the last time that happened for 531 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 4: the Raven's history. Just you were one away from being 532 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 4: able to eclipse that. Just did you feel pressure to 533 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 4: get onto that and what did it mean when you 534 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 4: finally did get. 535 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 8: That ten sack? 536 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 14: I mean, I felt like I could have gotten a lot, 537 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 14: I like a few games before or that, So I 538 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 14: did feel a little pressure. But you know, I feel 539 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 14: like I've been having that pressure since I got in 540 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 14: the league. So I found a better ways of, you know, 541 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 14: trying to comport it and you know, transform into how 542 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 14: I play. So I just use it as you know, 543 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 14: come on, but pressing on you, I get it. 544 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 6: So it wasn't really pressure. They just given her this 545 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 6: This season started. Now you guys are AFC North Champs. 546 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 6: Just what is that feeling? Just the roller coaster the 547 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 6: season to be where you are now in the position 548 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 6: to host a. 549 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 14: Home game, it feels good. Just everything we said it 550 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 14: was going to happen off season, all the people we 551 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 14: had to prove, you know, right, or prove prove wrong. 552 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 14: We proved ourselves right. It feels good. You know, I 553 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 14: feel like this want to feels a little better than 554 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 14: last year just because of you know, all the doubt 555 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 14: and you know, trying to do something again. It's a 556 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 14: little bit harder that way. New new people in crucial 557 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 14: spots too. So and then like you said, we went 558 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,360 Speaker 14: through a lot of adversity in the beginning and it's 559 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 14: a testament to zo a lot of leaders on the 560 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 14: defense to be able to turn around and you know, 561 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 14: not blame anyone and just go back to go to working. 562 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 8: And you know, right right right the ship, how much 563 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 8: deference is the defense playing with right now? 564 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 6: I mean back to back weeks. You guys get picked sixes. 565 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 4: You know, you and Kyle double digit sacks, Michael Pierce 566 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 4: wan with an interception. 567 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 6: How much confidence is the defense? 568 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 14: A lot? I feel like Houston was a good good 569 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 14: like you don't start to what the defense really could be. 570 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 14: But I feel like each time we have a good game, 571 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 14: it's just like letting us know what we can be, 572 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 14: and it's like a different form of like dominant. So 573 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 14: like this game was great, we got someone like four 574 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 14: hundred pounds get an interception. Like there's levels to this defense, 575 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 14: and you know we're just tapping into it. I'm learning 576 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 14: more ways, more different you know, stages of how we 577 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 14: can get better and dominant. 578 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: When you hit a milestone like double sacks, do you 579 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 1: think about the path through to get to this point 580 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: and all that you got through? 581 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think about all that, But it's like I 582 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 14: told them, it's like that's what fused you to keep going. Obviously, 583 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 14: when you have games where you don't get sacked, stretches 584 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 14: where you don't get sacked, and you know you hear 585 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 14: everything and you know can't doubt yourself, You'll just keep 586 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 14: on leaning back on what got you here. The work 587 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 14: and then that driving passion. You know, they want to 588 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 14: see you stop, they want to see lou So don't 589 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 14: do that, you know. So I feel like that's what 590 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 14: I kept telling myself, and you can't look. I'm looking 591 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 14: forward to the playoffs and even next year. 592 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 12: So definitely there were times earlier in the year where 593 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 12: the offensive cars since we love you guys, best defense 594 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 12: in the NFL, and the ways. 595 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 6: Turning around associated. 596 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 14: I feel like, like I said, we knew who we 597 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 14: were in the beginning. It's just that certain things we 598 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 14: weren't doing in terms of, you know, playing the defense 599 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 14: the right way. It's a new it was a new team, 600 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,439 Speaker 14: so we were trying to do things like we did 601 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 14: last year. I feel like I said, it's testament to 602 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 14: the players on the team and zo to step back 603 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 14: and like rearrange things and like, you know, go back 604 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 14: to work, don't blame anyone. And we found a way 605 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 14: to do it. 606 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 6: And that's that's the ingredients of a good team. Nothing 607 00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 6: how value was And to be able to play at home, 608 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 6: that's big. 609 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 14: I don't like to play anywhere else but home, you know, 610 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 14: to be honest. So that's real big, and it's see 611 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 14: the Charger that still is right. So both both teams 612 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 14: that we've beaten before, we'll have the home crowd behind us. 613 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 6: So that's a good situation for us. Every year of 614 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 6: the expectation of Baltimore is double digit wins cloud appearance. 615 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 6: Do you ever take it for granted that you guys 616 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 6: are we find yourself back? 617 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 14: I mean a guy like me that's that got drafted here, 618 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 14: I might because I haven't seen anything else since I've 619 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 14: been here. I guess the first year, second year, we're 620 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 14: a little bit streaky, but it's just been dominant consistency, discipline. 621 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 14: That's you know, it's the Ravens. So for me, yeah, 622 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 14: I might, but I really I tried really not to 623 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 14: because I have vets and guys that have come from 624 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 14: other teams that know, like, this is not easy to do. 625 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 14: So I feel like that's a good blend of young 626 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 14: guys and old guys, so we understand like the opportunity 627 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 14: we have and we capitalize on them. Oh no, you're 628 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 14: just thought because I thought he was gonna hurt him, 629 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 14: so when he went down, so he was just like, yo, 630 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 14: we're having you good, and you know, just pumping him 631 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 14: up because he couldn't have happened anyone better. 632 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 6: So yeah, app sire. 633 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: We also heard from running back Derrick Henry.
