Speaker 2: Here we go, Hey Jonathan, After the punter turn for

10
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: a score and then the three and out, did you

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 2: guys feel like, hey, here we go, it's my we

12
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 2: score right?

13
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 4: I definitely.

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 5: I mean we have a minum on our side. And

16
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 5: it kind of was kind of reminiscent of last time

17
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 5: we played these guys where we were pretty really close

18
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 5: to half and we just came out and didn't didn't

19
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,639
Speaker 5: do much. We didn't do enough to take a momentum.

20
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 5: They started out with a kick return and they had

21
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 5: momentum from that point on and it kind of just

22
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 5: was a, uh a, a fight to take the momentum

23
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 5: out the game, which is very tough in these top

24
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 5: environments in this type of situation, so we definitely had

25
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 5: to be better in that aspect, but uh, they came

26
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 5: with it, so hats off of them. They they were

27
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 5: the best seam in the leaf for a reason. So

28
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 5: I became a Baltimore friend. That's my dog, Lamar. I

29
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 5: hope he gets one. So uh, definitely looking forward to

30
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 5: cheering those guys on to hope they do it, because

31
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 5: they do it the right way ultimately, so hats off

32
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 5: of them. They had a hell of a game plan

33
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 5: and hell of a players and made some players when

34
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 5: they needed to.

35
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 2: What are some of the things you're gonna remember the

36
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 2: most about this season? I know it's I mean just

37
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: ended moments ago, and that's that's a tough thing to answer, perhaps,

38
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 2: but yeah, what sticks out to you right now?

39
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 5: Personally? It could be possibly that I this would be

40
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 5: the last time I put this uniform on, and being

41
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 5: my brothers in this locker room, I think that was

42
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 5: more or why I was more sad at the end

43
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 5: of the game. It's because, I mean, we we fought

44
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 5: our tails off all year. Man, It's nobody gave us

45
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 5: a chance at all the beginning of the season, even

46
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 5: back in Camp OTA's we just kept kept digging, man,

47
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 5: we just kept going. And I know, I said, i'm'a

48
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 5: make sure I'll go out with a bang this year,

49
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 5: no matter what happens. I'm'ake sure I'm getting off for

50
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 5: the team. So that way we can put our best

51
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 5: self in the situation to win these games, and I

52
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 5: could be best for the team. But yeah, that's stung.

53
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: Man.

54
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 5: I had to just sit there and think about, you know,

55
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 5: these past four years of what what I went through,

56
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 5: what we've been through as a team, man and as

57
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 5: a ORG.

58
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: So it's stung.

59
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: Man.

60
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 1: It sucked.

61
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: Uh.

62
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 5: But ultimately, like I said, hopefully we get another chance

63
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 5: at this thing. Man, I I definitely look forward to it.

64
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 5: But you know that's not my out of my control.

65
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 3: Man.

66
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: How how rejuvenating was Damiko Ryan's coming in and taking

67
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 2: this job and and everything he's done since last late

68
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 2: January early February.

69
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 5: Man, it was one of the best things, if not

70
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 5: the best thing that happened.

71
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 3: To this ORG.

72
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 5: I mean, man, his his his energy is infectious. He

73
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 5: knows the game, he loves the game, and he he

74
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 5: he just wants the best out of everybody, and I

75
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 5: think he pushed everybody to another gear. That we all

76
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 5: didn't know we had. You know, you know, when you

77
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 5: got a guy who comes in who's been done doing

78
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 5: it before with other teams, and you see it happen otherwise,

79
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 5: but you just want to see it happen with you.

80
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 5: And then you know, when you get in that fire,

81
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 5: when he's you know, pushing you to these limits that

82
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 5: you didn't know, you know, it brings out a new dog.

83
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 4: Un.

84
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 5: I think that's why I'm very appreciative of him and

85
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 5: the staff he put together for trusting to me and

86
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 5: giving me the the starting dearing spot man for this seam.

87
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 5: It didn't have to, I mean, so I'm super super

88
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 5: appreciative of the opportunity that he's given me. Them nerves

89
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 5: as well, just for let me just just be myself

90
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 5: and play ball here, give myself a chance to live

91
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 5: out my dream. I'm super thankful that they drafted me here.

92
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 5: But at this point, man, I just I feel like

93
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 5: I've done all I can and at this point, I'm

94
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 5: gonna let ships follow the inland.

95
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 2: Hey Blake, after the Sims punt return, you guys follow

96
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 2: it up with a three and out on defense, did

97
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 2: you guys think here we go?

98
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean we've we felt like we were in

99
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 3: the game, you know, doing things well, and then in

100
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: the second half, you know, uh, things just gotta I gotta,

101
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 3: I gotta control quickly. And you know, by them getting

102
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: that touchdown in the red zone, they were allowed to

103
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 3: or able to get to their you know style of football,

104
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 3: and I was get big and run the football, and

105
00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 3: that's when they're at their best.

106
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 2: How bright do you think the future is in this

107
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: locker room moving ahead with the Texans as a whole organization.

108
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 3: You know, I think the future is really bright. You know,

109
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: it's you'd like to always, you know, speak on them

110
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 3: now and when you have the opportunity to win now,

111
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 3: win now. But you know, in all in all, the

112
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 3: direction of this organization is going the right way. They

113
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 3: get the right head coach, the right players, the right quarterback.

114
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 3: You know, I think the Houston Texans are going to

115
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 3: be a great football team for a long time. Team

116
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 3: that's gonna control the division, and a team that will

117
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 3: not surprise anyone when they're a super condender here very soon.

118
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 2: Were you guys thinking at the half, Devin.

119
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 6: And come out and win the game, you know, but

120
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 6: just then't go allway. That's that's the best way to

121
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 6: put it. You guys made more plays than we did,

122
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 6: you know, and you know they got to win.

123
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: Just one of the best teams you guys have ever

124
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 2: come across as far the Ravens.

125
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Ravens. Yeah, this was definitely it was a

126
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 6: great team bro all the way across the board. I

127
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 6: think they put that on display today.

128
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: You just touched on a little bit. But how bright

129
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: is the future here in this locker room? And yeah,

130
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: with the future.

131
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 6: To come, man very bright, very bright, great players, great

132
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 6: coaching guys, that's hunger. They gonna remember this. So the

133
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 6: future is bright.

134
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 2: What do you think of what Demico Ryans did as

135
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 2: a coach this year?

136
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 3: Special?

137
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 6: Special? It doesn't happen often, you know, And it's still

138
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 6: a lot left in the tank. He can he can

139
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,799
Speaker 6: build off of this and keep finding ways to get better,

140
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 6: to get back to this point and you know, win

141
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 6: a game at this point, you know.

142
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 2: Ay Shaq? What was ultimately the difference today?

143
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 4: I think you know, they they take advantage of all

144
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 4: the opportunities, and you know, we we didn't take it.

145
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 4: We didn't take advantge of our ops. You know, it

146
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 4: was ten ten at halftime, you know, we were raving

147
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 4: position to make you know what I'm saying, take avenger

148
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 4: of opportunities, and those guys did and we didn't.

149
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: What was the message we just heard from Demiico Ryans

150
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 2: in the post game press conference, But what was his

151
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: overall message to you guys?

152
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 4: I mean, really, you know, just that you know, uh,

153
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 4: gotta take take avenger of opportunities. You know, I mean

154
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 4: me personally, I'm super proud of everybody in his locker room.

155
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 4: You know, we fought, but uh, you know, ultimately, we

156
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 4: played this game to win the World championship, and you

157
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 4: know we didn't do that. So gotta get back to

158
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 4: the to the drawing board.

159
