Jack Carbo's proud right now. You know, 0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:06.039 he likes he likes to pound the rock. And that's 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:09.280 what we did. I mean, Derek Henry was running hard, hard, physical. 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:12.119 Lamar started it off. I mean Lamar carried the ball 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.679 at different times in the first Driver too. I mean 0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:17.800 you get backed up to talk about good t shirt good, 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:21.319 you know, and talk about having faith. You know, the 0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:23.360 little punt gets bobbled, whatever, they get the ball, We 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:25.399 get the ball to five yard line and we go 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:26.959 ninety five yards for a touchdown. 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:27.200 Good. 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:30.119 You know, whatever adversity your face with, find a way 0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:31.800 to overcome it. And did it with execution. They did 0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:34.119 it with physicality. They did it by playing one play 0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:37.360 at a time, by being poised and uh and just 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:39.119 understand it. It's gonna be a long game. It's gonna 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:40.600 be a lot of plays, you know, and let's let's 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:42.480 try to put as many good plays together as we could. 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:43.959 I think it just kind of kept it that simple. 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.760 So yeah, the Running Game, The Running Game makes it possible. 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:50.360 I know, you have an appreciation for what Lamar does 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:52.760 as much as anyone. You see more of him than anyone, 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:56.160 But does he does he teach you anything new about 0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.600 himself with a game like this, like you said, starting 0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:00.680 open with a bunch of physical run and then just 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:03.800 doing what he did without his say flowers. 0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:05.560 Yeah, uh, you know, I think about Lamar. 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:07.440 I guess the thing that I continue to be amazed 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:08.919 with just who he is as a person, you know, 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.080 I mean, of course, how the plays he makes, and 0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.240 how tough he is. I mean, I mean just you 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:16.160 can't get over about how tough he is, how physically 0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:18.640 tough he is, how mentally tough he is. You know, 0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:20.679 he's in there running the ball, he's getting hit, and 0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:22.480 he's taking shots, and he's you know, he gets back 0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:24.360 up and then he steps up and makes a play, 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.960 runs around and throws a touchdown pass. I mean, that's 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:28.600 that play at the end of the half. That's what 0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:31.480 we call trigger, and that's basically you hit it or 0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:32.600 you dirt it, or you throw it out of the 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:34.640 back of the end zone, you know, and he runs 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:36.640 around and finds a touchdown pass. And I think, I 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:39.400 just think in his head, he he knows what eleven 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.320 seconds is. The clock was going a little faster for 0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:44.639 me in my mind, you know, I'm like, he throw 0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:47.160 that thing away. You know, he threw it. It was a touchdown. 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:48.760 You know, it's like all he can say is wow. 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.360 I think I said wow about seven times right there. 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:54.560 So you know, glory, glory to God. 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:55.359 For that one. 0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:59.480 John Early in the game, you go to play where 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.760 he takes a direct snap, fakes the suite to Jackson, 0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:05.239 he takes off on a huge game. Has that play 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:06.399 been in the book all year? 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:07.480 Did you put it in this weekend? 0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.600 What would you say broadly about Todd Molkin's game tonight? 0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:12.480 Yeah, I mean, I just I feel like Todd did 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:15.280 a great job. He called the game really well. Uh, 0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:17.960 he was patient, and but he also had some we 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:19.560 had We had a few play actions dialed up and 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:20.960 things like that. We had some things we didn't get 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:23.240 to too because you were running the ball so well. 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:25.400 But that was a play we put in this week 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:26.280 to play. 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:27.679 That went in. Uh. 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:29.679 And uh, you know it's a little bit off the 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.000 Tennessee play that they ran against us last year, remember 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:33.720 in London, So it was kind of off of that play. 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.040 It's kind of the idea of it. I just just 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:38.240 set it up a little bit differently. But I think 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:41.200 the whole offensive staff is doing a great job. Travis 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:45.360 Sweitzer was you know, coordinates the run game. George, George Warhap, 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:48.800 George gotsee Willie Taggart does a great job with that. 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.040 I mean, Julu's got those guys blocking out there in 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:53.080 the perimeter. It's just a team effort. 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:55.920 Only your first thirty two plays, you guys have twenty 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:57.680 four rush of the time. So is that the plan 0:03:57.760 --> 0:03:59.720 or is that something gotten old throughout the first time? 0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.360 Yeah, like I consider pertained that twenty four and thirty 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.160 two as a plan. You know, there's a lot of 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:05.680 people out there real happy about that though. 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:06.119 Right now. 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:08.280 And when you can do that, you want to do it, 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:10.080 you know, and that's pretty pretty awesome. That's kind of mean, 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:12.440 you know, to one thing about Todd I appreciate and 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:13.960 and it's really all of our coaches. I think those 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:17.160 guys are are great unit together. But whatever it takes, 0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:18.919 you know, we don't have to do it one certain 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:21.919 kind of way. We don't have a particular you know, 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:24.680 back system that where we're not like the West Coast 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:25.520 system or something like that. 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:26.680 We're just the Ravens system. 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:29.240 You know, what's the best offense that we can put 0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:31.279 together for our players, you know at this time, and 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:32.280 they do a great job of that. 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.599 If you are so fortimula though, I mean running the football, 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:37.039 stopping the run this time of year. 0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.360 Oh yeah, I mean absolutely, Jerry. I mean that's that's 0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:40.920 that's a big part of the for him. And it's football. 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:42.560 It's like it's like Jeremies is talking about it. This 0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:44.800 is Jack harball man. It goes back as that's as 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:46.800 old as football. And it's kind of the Ravens way too. 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:48.920 I think if you look back and look at Baltimore, 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:52.320 you know, since two thousand, they were throwing the ball 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.200 out first three years, but every year after that it's 0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:57.560 been it's been it's been run defense, special teams. But 0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:00.360 Lamar's had a little he's had a little little flavored 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.400 to that whole thing, hadn't he you know, And we're 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:03.360 throwing the ball well too. 0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.880 So Josh feel this was a signature game for your 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:08.400 offensive line as well. I mean, we know the talent 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:09.599 on the other side of the wall. 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:09.920 I think. 0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:11.680 So, I mean that that's a you know, that's a 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.920 really good football team. That's a very physical defense, that's 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.200 a tough defensive line. Their linebackers are down here and 0:05:17.400 --> 0:05:20.200 we know Patrick Roberts is a great player. Their guys 0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:21.720 on the edge are just a nightmare to deal with. 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.159 They were crashing the ends off the edge was very physical, 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:26.760 and we were able to control the edges for the 0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:28.400 run game as much as anything. And how about our 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:29.960 tackles in the pass game. It wasn't like we were 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:31.760 chipping all the time when we were passing, and I 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:34.360 thought our tackles did a great job. You know, their 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:36.160 offense came in the second half. You know, they made 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:38.960 some plays. Now, they hit us on three third downs 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.320 that you know, they found the weakness and the coverage 0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:43.000 and we didn't play it quite perfectly. We got to 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.520 chase perfection and play those things a little better. But 0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.960 they made those plays. And then I mean those throws 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:50.240 up the sideline, they were just great throws and great catches. 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:52.039 You know, those were well covered plays and they were 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.359 they made him that's a really good football team and 0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:55.719 that's a it's a really good win for us. 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.240 Talked about you know earlier and that we talked about 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:01.560 how you sometimes it was too hyped or too antsy 0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:04.560 in these games, in these playoff games. What have you 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:07.800 seen from him that's been different? In that regard because 0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:11.000 he I mean, he looked very much obviously in control against. 0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:12.040 Yeah, I feel like he's kind of been that way 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:14.680 all year, But but he is, he is very much 0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:16.760 in control. It's probably a great way to say he's 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.440 he's got a great hand on the game plan. But 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:21.400 I think when the when the play starts, he's just 0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:25.120 he's seeing things. You know, he's he's he's uh, he's 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:27.360 got a good grasp of the coverage. He sees the coverage. 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:29.160 I think he keeps it kind of simple in terms 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:30.680 of what he's looking for. You know, he studies a 0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:34.440 lot of tape and just seeing it field really well. 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:37.000 John, you may mentioned of Pittsburghs making the plays they 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:38.920 did when they had that ninety eight yard touchdown drive. 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:40.600 How impressed were you with the offense? 0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:43.320 I think Lamar was even sacked on that first down play. 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.440 But you score a touchdown in four plays, I mean 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:47.679 they had to be demoralizing for them trying. 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:47.720 To get that. 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:49.440 Yeah, you talking about two minute drive. 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:51.800 No, no, in the third quarter when when they went 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:53.680 ninety eight yards and then you guys score a touchdown 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:54.560 on four plays? 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.960 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. The answer, Yeah, I mean I 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.000 didn't expect it. I mean, I didn't expect you know, 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:00.560 he kind of trying to figure out you no math 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:02.000 in your head, and what do we need to do? 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:03.839 And then our offense just marches right down the field 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:06.080 and you Lamar drives it, and the guys made plays. 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.080 I mean, how about Tyland Wallace made a play, you know, 0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:11.280 to convert that was we were second in first twenty 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:13.760 second and twenty you know, and then and Lamar finds him. 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:14.200 He sees the. 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.800 Field like Brian's talking about, and Tyler gets open and 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:18.680 makes the play, and Lamar put Dotson right there and 0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:20.880 he gets up a field. Just guys are making plays. 0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:23.360 Bait had a few huge plays. Mark had some big plays. 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:25.440 Isaiah likely early in the game, you know where he 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:27.440 swung the ball like that and I was screaming to 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:30.880 put it away. You know, guys got more yards, got 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:32.840 out of bounds. I mean, just everybody's kind of stepping up. 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.160 It's just it's a real team effort. 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:37.800 Tell me so that there were captain patches on the 0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:39.920 raymis Jersey. Believe it's the first time you've done that. 0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:43.800 Team history went into that decision, and for the six 0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:45.600 specific guys that you picked for that. 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:47.080 Look went into them right. 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:48.960 Well, for the guys we picked, it was a team 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:51.720 vote and uh and uh and there and then we 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:53.760 also have two we had two game captains, which was 0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:56.800 Tyler and Kyle this week, and the idea was, you know, 0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.480 these guys, I think our leadership has been really It's 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:02.040 not that it's been great every year, but this year 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:03.560 the leadership has been really outstanding. 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:04.440 It's been really something. 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.640 I think they've been locked in in a real kind 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:10.040 of special way, and it was just an opportunity to 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:11.920 acknowledge that. Probably I kind of wanted to put the 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:15.920 patch on Lamar for sure, and Rokwan and some other guys. 0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:17.440 You know, Mark guys you got but they all got 0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:19.440 the votes, and we decided to go ahead and do it. 0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:20.960 And I think it's well deserved. 0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:23.560 Today the Broncos beat the Bills. 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:25.680 You have a home game here next week. Do you 0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:27.280 do you get involved. 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:28.920 In in that or do you just, oh, you've been 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:29.680 root for him? 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.000 You know, I can always root for a home game, 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:35.520 And I think it bears note in the Our fans 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:38.400 tonight were unbelievable and our stadium was incredible. 0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:39.800 I mean, it was a fun stadium. 0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:41.480 I gotta tell you, I took a moment a couple 0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:42.760 times to kind of look around and see what was 0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:44.280 going on. I mean, the lights come out. You notice 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.640 that right when they put the lights out, and. 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:48.360 That ray Lewis comes out of the end zone and 0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:49.760 does the dance. I mean I heard the song. 0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:52.520 I'm like, it kind of sounds familiar, you know, here 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:54.120 and here it comes right out of the tunnel. And 0:08:54.440 --> 0:08:56.600 I just think our fans were just really right on point. 0:08:56.640 --> 0:08:57.920 It was loud out there. It was hard for them 0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.520 to communicate when they started chating. Then v P where 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:02.000 we were trying to close the game out, you know. 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:04.920 But uh but then uh, once we closed the game out, 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:07.600 they got it going again. It was our Our fans 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.640 were phenomenal. So if that happens and they get an opportunity 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:11.760 to do it again, that'd be great. 0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:12.440 Uh. 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:14.679 If not, we'll go to Buffalo and and we'll be 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:17.719 ready to play.

So 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:56.600 going into the next the second game we played him, 0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:58.600 it's like, we don't turn the ball over. We got 0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:00.440 a chance, you know, and we did that. We had 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.800 a chance the first time. On the second time tonight, 0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:04.880 same thing. Don't turn the ball over, keep the ball 0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:05.600 in our possession. 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:09.200 We did that. See the results O Mark tonight. 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:12.920 You guys talk about say being out how you hut 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:14.440
