0:00:03.760 --> 0:00:06.520
<v Speaker 1>the hour, but we'd be hard pressed to find someone

0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:09.239

<v Speaker 1>do So and Paul Parrilla. Mike, congratulations, what a game.

0:00:17.040 --> 0:00:19.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh thank you guys very much. Man, I appreciate it.

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:21.160
<v Speaker 3>Mike, just you know, what was the energy like coming

0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:23.000
<v Speaker 3>out today, because it seems like you guys finally got

0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:24.520
<v Speaker 3>you know, a good start. You came out, you put

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 3>a drive together, you put some points on the board,

0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 3>the defense came out and got that interception. Just you know,

0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:30.640
<v Speaker 3>can you speak a little bit to just the start

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:32.600
<v Speaker 3>and the energy that that brought to you your team?

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:33.800
<v Speaker 4>Uh?

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:36.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely, I mean it was something that we focused on,

0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:38.600
<v Speaker 2>you know all wee can practice, just talked about it

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:40.920
<v Speaker 2>all week, just starting fast and you know, playing from ahead,

0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 2>and we were able to do that and then obviously,

0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, it took all four quarters and all the minutes.

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:48.959
<v Speaker 4>So Mike, obviously you come down to the wire there,

0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:50.839
<v Speaker 4>you're at the one yard line, you have no time out,

0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 4>so running the ball probably not an option there to

0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 4>make sure you have the tying field goal. Take us

0:00:56.520 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 4>through the touchdown catch. You looked like you got inside.

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:02.200
<v Speaker 4>If I think was it was it Johnson? I think

0:01:02.440 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 4>Taron Johnson?

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Uh yeah, absolutely, yeah. I mean I knew once we

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 2>sent that personnel on the field that you know, I

0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 2>was gonna have a chance. And uh, you know, it's

0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:15.600
<v Speaker 2>really just four verts by everybody in the field, and

0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:17.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, Mac just kind of going to going to

0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:20.280
<v Speaker 2>whatever matchup that that he that he selected, and you know,

0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:22.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm appreciated with him giving me a chance. And uh,

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:26.560
<v Speaker 2>you know I knew that. You know, Johnson was probably

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:27.960
<v Speaker 2>thinking I was gonna try to get to his outside

0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:30.280
<v Speaker 2>and maybe like a back shoulder, So I tried to

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:32.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, sell that and then you know, sneak inside

0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:33.880
<v Speaker 2>and make make a play.

0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:35.680
<v Speaker 3>See seemed like Mac had to go to you on

0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 3>National tight Ends day though, right like that, like that

0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:38.559
<v Speaker 3>just had to happen.

0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Hey man, I'll take you, I'll take you. I mean

0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 2>that was that was definitely a fun way to end.

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Mike we I'm sorry, we we won't we won't tell anybody,

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 1>but were you thinking field goal? Maybe field goal on

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:52.200
<v Speaker 1>that last drive and then and then we'll see what

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>happens in overtime.

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 2>Uh, you know, honestly, I mean, you know, on the sideline,

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:58.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, we were talking. You know, our goal was

0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 2>to go down there, score and win it. And that's

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 2>exactly what we did. Started off hot with a great player,

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 2>m Andre Hunter, had a great catch on third down,

0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 2>pop got us down in the one yard line, and

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:10.960
<v Speaker 2>uh then you know it will be you know, send

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:12.880
<v Speaker 2>in twelve personnel and you know, gave gave me a

0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:15.399
<v Speaker 2>chance for uh for the game winner and Matt Greick

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 2>and Matt gave a great ball, o line gave him

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.639
<v Speaker 2>time and it was it was. It was a great

0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:23.640
<v Speaker 2>ending to a great day for us. But you know,

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:24.799
<v Speaker 2>we got a long road ahead of us.

0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 4>So, Mike, as you're talking, we're running highlights of the

0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:29.800
<v Speaker 4>of the game winning catch, and it looked like you

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.520
<v Speaker 4>did a really nice job of sort of knowing that

0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.799
<v Speaker 4>Johnson's coming and keeping the ball a little bit up high.

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 4>You know, obviously you have you know, a pretty good

0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:39.920
<v Speaker 4>height advantage there, but making sure that he wasn't going

0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 4>to get high enough to be able to knock the

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:43.919
<v Speaker 4>ball loose. Was that on your mind as you're bringing

0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 4>it in.

0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I mean I think you know, I learned that

0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 2>way back, you know, when I know you know my

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 2>size and you know where I can keep the ball.

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:53.040
<v Speaker 2>So I knew if I kind of just kept it away,

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:54.840
<v Speaker 2>because you know, they're they're teaching him to, you know,

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 2>play through the hands. So if I tried to tuck

0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.160
<v Speaker 2>it right there, it would have give him a chance

0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.480
<v Speaker 2>to make a play on it. So I just trying

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 2>to keep it away. Uh, you know, obviously get two

0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 2>feet control of the ground and then get up and

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:09.040
<v Speaker 2>celebrate like an absolute moral Well, Mike, I.

0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:10.160
<v Speaker 4>Don't deserve to today.

0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:13.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and seriously for an offense that's been a hold

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>on the quiet side, you and several other guys on

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.799
<v Speaker 1>the offense today kicked that door open and said we're here.

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>So congratulations, great win, great catch, and we really appreciate

0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:25.080
<v Speaker 1>you taking the time. Thank you.

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thank you, guys. I appreciate it, all right, Thank you, Mike.

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:29.399
<v Speaker 1>Mike is sick.

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:29.959
<v Speaker 2>Thank you.
