Speaker 1: Oh, we have Adam Butler and the Okay, this is quick.

00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: All right, good, let's go. Butler did it. Let's get

6
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 1: how we you know, we kind of started talking about

7
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,319
Speaker 1: the game right away. We kind of glossed over the fact,

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: whoa wait, a second division champs again and it shouldn't

9
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,560

Speaker 1: and again for the season to take another division. Yeah. Man,

11
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: this is definitely a team effort. Man. You know, everybody fought,

12
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: you know, to the end of the game and he

13
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: paid off. Adam, What was what was going through your

14
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: mind there at the end? You guys were put on

15
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,279
Speaker 1: the spot, you had to make a last stop, kind

16
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: of putting it all on the line. Is uh? You know,

17
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: how much confidence do you guys have after the season

18
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: you've put together in that kind of situation. I mean,

19
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: I definitely have a lot of confidence in my teammates,

20
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: you know, and the stop stops like that, you know,

21
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: that feels a lot of trust, um, and you know

22
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: it's it's important, you know that we trust each other

23
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: and we have faith in each other. It's gonna this

24
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: is gonna come up again. This is not the last

25
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 1: time we're gonna see a game like this. It's games

26
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: like this that you know, we got more ahead of

27
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: absolutely the last two plays. I wanted to ask you

28
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: about the second down play. You know, Alan looked like

29
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: he had knocks overthrew him a little bit. And then

30
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: the third and fourth downd. You guys just dialed up

31
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: some immense pressure and made sure that that Josh Allen's

32
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 1: gonna get rid of the ball. Was that? I mean,

33
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: what is the first of all? Was that the design

34
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: of those plays, you know, just to just let's let's

35
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: see if we can get at him and make sure

36
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: he has to get rid of the ball before he

37
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 1: wants to. Was that the idea there? I mean, yeah,

38
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: pretty much. I mean our third down union was in there.

39
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: Uh and you know my role is primarily gone third

40
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: down and uh, you know, I didn't really pay attention

41
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: to anybody else. I just focused that play, you know,

42
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: and my job is to be disruptive, So I got

43
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: off the ball as quick as I could, you know,

44
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: and got in there so doing my best to do

45
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: my job, and he came right to me and I

46
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: got him down. It seemed like you guys rattled the

47
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: quarterback a couple of times earlier on. Were you surprised

48
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: when Alan showed a little bit of poise there in

49
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: the in the second half and was able to get

50
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: out of a situation or two? There weren't that many,

51
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: there was a time or two when he was able

52
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: to escape. Were you a little surprised at that? No,

53
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not surprised at that at all. I mean,

54
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: is that that's what he does, you know what I mean,

55
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: he's a you know, a dual threat quarterback. Uh. But

56
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: you know, we figured the best thing to do, you know,

57
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: was just make him throw the ball, you know what

58
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: I mean. We gained playing that, you know, and we

59
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: figured it just that's the best thing to do, you know,

60
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: rather than just let him run, you know, gets yards

61
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: and put them in the best field position possible. But

62
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: it didn't surprise me one dad that he got out

63
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: a couple of times. You know, that's that's gonna happen

64
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: sometimes for quarterback like that. Adam a nice night for

65
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: the run defense. You guys gave up just forty six

66
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: yards to single terry. How much was he part of

67
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: your game plan this week? And you know, just in

68
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: terms of stopping the run? How key was that to

69
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 1: Buffalo's offense? Man? That was a definitely, definitely a big thing.

70
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: You know, that's that's actually always a big thing. We

71
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: take pride in stopping the run, so and putting things

72
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: in long situations because we trust our third down unit.

73
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: But anything, anything's goal is to stop the run. Nobody

74
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: wants to get the ball run on them. So, you know,

75
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: after last week, you know, I just wanted to continue

76
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: with that the run defense. Was there a lot of

77
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: talk among you guys. You know, Joe Mixon had a

78
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: you know, a pretty good day in Cincinnati last week,

79
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: and you guys bounce back. It looked like a totally

80
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: different front that was dealing with with Buffalo. Was that

81
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: a big topic for you guys all week? Is that

82
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: basically what the idea was, Yeah, well, I mean I'm

83
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: gonna lose, we come back in is try to correct

84
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: our mistakes from the week before anyway, so and not

85
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: repeat them. Um So you can say that was a

86
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: big emphasis um this week. All right, Adam, we'll let

87
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: you go and go celebrate a little bit. I know

88
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: you guys have more work to do, but I want

89
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: you to have a merry Christmas and we look forward

90
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: to see you again a week from tomorrow to wrap

91
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: up this regular season. Congratulations again, thank you. I appreciate

92
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: you guys. Happy holidays. Same to add. There he goes,

93
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: Adam Butler there and the Patriots tonight winners over the

94
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills twenty four to seven. You know, Butler was

95
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: involved in so I think he had a half a

96
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: sack and one of those players hit him. And High

97
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: Tower were there,
