Speaker 1: Get a big play that's close to the goal line
Speaker 1: and he feels like the defense is you know, slow
Speaker 1: to get back. He'll hurry up to the offense. But
Speaker 1: they run the same you know play most of the time.
Speaker 1: They try to get a quick run and see they
Speaker 1: can catch you off guard no matter what the personnel is.
Speaker 1: And so we were prepared for that. We did a
Speaker 1: good job, I think of getting everybody lined up, um,
Speaker 1: and really I just shot the gap and just um,
Speaker 1: you know, I was hoping to get a negative play
Speaker 1: and I thought that was huge that back him up
Speaker 1: a little bit. Um. And then the interception. Uh, I
Speaker 1: probably owe Walter Thurman the Christmas gift because I'm on
Speaker 1: the mendola and he did a good job, but really
Speaker 1: just beat me inside. Um. I knew I had some
Speaker 1: help in there, but it wasn't a true double team.
Speaker 1: But Walter saw kind of the position I was in
Speaker 1: and he he took it and I was able to
Speaker 1: tip the ball up and you know I'm right there
Speaker 1: to catch it, and you know, so he really, you know,
Speaker 1: my mind made that play. I just kind of, I guess,
Speaker 1: took the glory for not a lot of people. People
Speaker 1: given you guys, just shot to come in here, specially
Speaker 1: the way Brady's played in this place. What does it
Speaker 1: say about you guys in the game? UM, I think
Speaker 1: it's you know, it just shows that we're resilient group.
Speaker 1: We believe in what we're doing. We believe in the
Speaker 1: guys that we have UM in the building. UM. And
Speaker 1: it was just a matter of playing the way the
Speaker 1: we're capable of playing. And we know for our team
Speaker 1: to win, everybody has to contribute. You know, it's not
Speaker 1: just going to be the defense or the offense or
Speaker 1: special teams. We all got to play together to get
Speaker 1: a win. And we saw that today. We came here, UM,
Speaker 1: beat a really really good team, beat you know, the
Speaker 1: best quarterback in the league. UM. And that's not that's
Speaker 1: a tall task. They don't lose at home and so
Speaker 1: but this was a game that we needed to win.
Speaker 1: We needed this momentum. We needed this UM it's spark
Speaker 1: to kind of carry us on throughout the season and
Speaker 1: the games don't get any easier for us going forward.
Speaker 1: Previous How does this fact well, I mean, I think
Speaker 1: anybody who said our confidence is low was probably outside
Speaker 1: of our building. I think that the entire time, even
Speaker 1: though we weren't getting the results that we wanted. I
Speaker 1: think guys were confident in themselves. I thought we were
Speaker 1: confident in the scheme and I think it was obvious
Speaker 1: that we needed to change some things or add some things,
Speaker 1: but we were confident in what we were we could
Speaker 1: do because we've seen it in the past. And I
Speaker 1: think really that was Chips message from the beginning of
Speaker 1: the week is just reminding us of who we've been. Defensively,
Speaker 1: we've been great until as of late. Um offensively we're
Speaker 1: been able to move the ball. You know, everything that
Speaker 1: people say that we can't do, we've done before. And
Speaker 1: really we just needed to get back to whatever that is.
Speaker 1: And so I think guys started to believe themselves. The
Speaker 1: morale all week was was hired in the normal. We
Speaker 1: didn't need a huge Rock Ross speech. You know, guys
Speaker 1: just went to work and believed in the game plan
Speaker 1: and came in and executed. Feedback that you get from
Speaker 1: the teammates about what you and do you think it
Speaker 1: helped in any way? I don't know if you know
Speaker 1: what I said helped, Uh, you know, it's really but
Speaker 1: what I can say is I know that our the
Speaker 1: vibe around the building felt a lot different, I think, UM,
Speaker 1: And I don't know if it had anything to do
Speaker 1: what I said, but it was it was just different.
Speaker 1: I think guys did a great job but really detailing
Speaker 1: their their part of the game plan, really taking ownership
Speaker 1: and what was going on. Uh. There was a lot
Speaker 1: of feedback going back and forth. Everybody had input, UM,
Speaker 1: and everybody was it believed. You know, we were preparing
Speaker 1: and we felt good about our plan and we felt
Speaker 1: like we could come in here and get a win. UM.
Speaker 1: And and that's it's been different than in previous weeks since,
Speaker 1: not that we haven't been confident, but it's just a
Speaker 1: different field. And so whatever that that is, we're going
Speaker 1: to try to feed off of that and keep it going. Possibly.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, there's there's um, you know a
Speaker 1: little bit of personality that comes out when when some somebody,
Speaker 1: especially one of your leaders, kind of uh speaks out.
Speaker 1: And not that I was calling anybody out or anything negative,
Speaker 1: because there are no problems in our building, but UM,
Speaker 1: I think it does kind of shock the system. Whatever.
Speaker 1: It starts conversations, it starts UM to open guy's eyes
Speaker 1: as far as you know, taking ownership and UM and
Speaker 1: really taking a look at what's going on and what
Speaker 1: we've been doing and where we can get better. Uh
Speaker 1: you know, but like I said, whatever that spark is,
Speaker 1: hopefully um our leaders will continue to lead and continue
Speaker 1: to set the example or we'll keep building on top
Speaker 1: of this from Malcolm said, Uh yeah, I mean, and
Speaker 1: you know the main thing really and when where my
Speaker 1: comments came from is just myself. You know, I feel
Speaker 1: like I played better when I'm coach harder, and you
Speaker 1: know I don't. I don't like to get you know,
Speaker 1: if I when you start to play at the high
Speaker 1: level or you want of the leaders, A lot of
Speaker 1: the times you don't get coach as hard as some
Speaker 1: of the rookies or some of you know, the guys
Speaker 1: who aren't your your main guys because they expect you
Speaker 1: to know what they expect you to kind of correct yourself. Um,
Speaker 1: but you know, I'm human too and I can let
Speaker 1: some things slip, and so I think, Uh, my coach
Speaker 1: definitely challenged me. I know my difference back. Coach challenged
Speaker 1: me all week. Um, you know that I was gonna
Speaker 1: have a huge matchup and and have to play a
Speaker 1: big part in this game for us to have success,
Speaker 1: and so I had that challenge either this week. And
Speaker 1: you know, I think just as a team, we all
Speaker 1: played great. Last question for Malcolm, Sam's ready and I
Speaker 1: got Chip praised you because he said that, well, you
Speaker 1: took the risk to turn this, turn the touchdown, to
Speaker 1: turn the interception there would touchdown. Can you talk about it?
Speaker 1: You might set and I'm making that play. I mean,
Speaker 1: anytime I get the ball in my hands, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to score. And it's that simple. Uh yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's yeah, there's no other option. It's there's nothing to lose.
Speaker 1: There's really no risk in it at all, you know,
Speaker 1: it's uh, I got the ball like thankfully, thankfully to
Speaker 1: thankful to Walter Thurman because he tipped it up. I
Speaker 1: think made up one of the lineman miss and I
Speaker 1: felt some pursuit coming from our left, so I just
Speaker 1: cut back and it's just a full race, all right,
Speaker 1: Thanks everybody, No problem,
