Speaker 1: Calvin, if you could step inside Rex Ryan's mind for
Speaker 1: a second, what do you think he's thinking about this week,
Speaker 1: at this opponent and what the circumstances are for you guys.
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna come in with the same minds
Speaker 1: that he had the last time. Um, he's gonna pay
Speaker 1: a team he's doing. He knows the person that up
Speaker 1: pretty well, and I just think they're gonna come in
Speaker 1: with this ruin our season type mentality. But you know,
Speaker 1: Rich is a provaul guy, so I know I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have a seam raiser to play. How much do you
Speaker 1: think he's thinking about knocking you guys out of the playoffs?
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, you know, it's it's a major
Speaker 1: motivation for him, but I think more so than anything, uh,
Speaker 1: he probably want to finish to see you on the
Speaker 1: winning note. Also, so I think both of those playing
Speaker 1: factor ins who um, you know their motivation coming into
Speaker 1: this game. Kline, at what point did you start to
Speaker 1: believe that this team could could do something special and
Speaker 1: could go on and run like it well be getting
Speaker 1: the season. I thought, you know, we had the time,
Speaker 1: and I thought everything was the place. You know, things happened,
Speaker 1: you know, some us and downs. Um, you know, things
Speaker 1: that look too good there and there's a little bog
Speaker 1: and stress, but you know the over time, the over
Speaker 1: time winning gets the Giants show with a lot of characters, UM,
Speaker 1: a lot of fights. You know, it's it's tough trying
Speaker 1: to come back on the team and then had to
Speaker 1: go to over time and trying to find more to
Speaker 1: get to push to get the win. So I think
Speaker 1: that win right there kind spring boarded our season and
Speaker 1: help build some moving force. Calvin, you know yesterday, you know,
Speaker 1: having into yesterday, you guys were kind of long shots
Speaker 1: to make the postseason just because you know, you needed
Speaker 1: to do things yourself, you needed other winds elsewhere. But
Speaker 1: it's sort of flipped on its head and you were
Speaker 1: a chance to think about how well yesterday went for
Speaker 1: you guys, and can you can you put in the
Speaker 1: words what it feels like reflecting on what happened yesterday, Well,
Speaker 1: it feels good. I woll see to win, um with
Speaker 1: the thing that that feels great to me was just
Speaker 1: the execution and just finishing the game. UM. I know
Speaker 1: for myself up in that situation and a lot of
Speaker 1: times with the Patriots where you played a great game.
Speaker 1: Everything's worth and the last second, the last minute and
Speaker 1: whatever you end up losing, and it just it always
Speaker 1: feels good to beat them. But just the manner that
Speaker 1: you know they were we we were down, I mean,
Speaker 1: we're even and then he had taken in the overtime
Speaker 1: and see the offense moved the ball with it was
Speaker 1: great to see. I was, I was very proud of
Speaker 1: those guys. That's the way that they just kind of
Speaker 1: work their way down the field. And cord of Susom Calvin,
Speaker 1: how much of her relief is it for you too?
Speaker 1: And I think you kind of maybe alluded to this
Speaker 1: earlier in the year. To have an offense that is
Speaker 1: just capable of this group, obviously, that's been something that's
Speaker 1: been lacking from this team ever since you got just
Speaker 1: to play playoffs and it's playoffs drive. How nice is
Speaker 1: that to have a offension that really can do its part.
Speaker 1: It's the very thing, man, you know, I truly feel
Speaker 1: the best defense is a good offense. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: things are just clicking, you know. You know, obviously Brandon
Speaker 1: mort was having an awesome year. Death is having a
Speaker 1: great year of business. He's been He's been amazing for us,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's balance and it's it's fun
Speaker 1: to watch and when they're clicking is uh it helps
Speaker 1: us out a lot. And I think, you know, it's
Speaker 1: just it's fun to watch all three phases kind of
Speaker 1: start coming to their own and uh, just having a
Speaker 1: good team complete Winhams kind of was already a point
Speaker 1: in the last few years where you started to wonder
Speaker 1: whether you get another shot at the playoffs. Not really,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I really do always feel good
Speaker 1: about coming into the but you know this year from um,
Speaker 1: you know, Mike mcadney coming in, co vol coming in
Speaker 1: and and the things that they built through creation, through
Speaker 1: the draft, and um, it was a nice to the
Speaker 1: pieces come together. So, UM, I still agree with about it.
Speaker 1: Coming into this year, I thought, you know, it wasn't
Speaker 1: a guarantee, nothing to guarantee what I thought, you know,
Speaker 1: this is a good chance that we've had in the
Speaker 1: last few years. So it's it's just nice to see
Speaker 1: it running about. Capital n't make your sense that that
Speaker 1: the team really started buying into what the coach Boles
Speaker 1: would selling. Um. Actually, I think after the Houston off,
Speaker 1: I think it's just it was a point in time
Speaker 1: where we just kind of had we had to come
Speaker 1: together or the same the ship was gonna think, I
Speaker 1: think so um, you know obviously always wasn't working as players,
Speaker 1: and you know we weren't. We weren't um, you know,
Speaker 1: focusing on with details and us so hey, that's why
Speaker 1: I get all when you know, on coat gold stead
Speaker 1: of those. It just kind of happened. It was no
Speaker 1: brainer for us to keep going for the season turned around.
Speaker 1: We just no choice for us. It's kind of let's
Speaker 1: just a slot of them man, and let him take us. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's where we need to go. Kevin, you would say
Speaker 1: strand Fitstatrick previous seasons. Obviously he was a guy who
Speaker 1: had been a fine quarterback, you know, nothing spectacular for
Speaker 1: a lot of his careers, having an outstanding stretch here.
Speaker 1: What were your perceptions of them? You know before you
Speaker 1: guys traded for him and then you know, maybe how
Speaker 1: had you kind of change some of those getting GM
Speaker 1: and play with him every day Now. I've always saw
Speaker 1: Holly fit. I really had a lot of He was
Speaker 1: a guy who's very competitive guy. Um, you know, I
Speaker 1: don't want to say he hasn't gone in best teams
Speaker 1: in the world. But I think it's nice seeing weapons run,
Speaker 1: good offen line, good running game. But I really have
Speaker 1: always thought how this Um it's far. I pusn't been
Speaker 1: Buffalo um astro on the ball around, so I probabays
Speaker 1: he's always been a guta U because I'd like, Calvin,
Speaker 1: will you say anything to some of the younger guys,
Speaker 1: you know about seizing this moment and how you know
Speaker 1: it doesn't come along too often? Um, you know, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna beat it in their heads during the week.
Speaker 1: I think they know. Um, you know, I'm might say
Speaker 1: a little something for the game, but everybody's everybody's focusing
Speaker 1: a lot of ye so don't you know, I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna be giving these rob Rock speeches. Um, you know
Speaker 1: it's And the good thing is we played Buffalo, so
Speaker 1: it's like we're familiar with what's going on. You know.
Speaker 1: It's just about um, you know, maybe looking at the
Speaker 1: game earlier in the year, you know, show up some
Speaker 1: areas we were bad and go out and go out
Speaker 1: and play. Calvin leaving up to the game you guys
Speaker 1: played in Miami two years ago, when you guys had
Speaker 1: been eliminated in Miami, go alive. How much did Rex
Speaker 1: play up that angle during the week and with the win,
Speaker 1: you guys could knock thematic convention, you know, and I
Speaker 1: could be honest, which actuallyn' um, I couldn't say you
Speaker 1: any kind of what he was saying. Motivational wise, I
Speaker 1: want to say that that was a year we're kind
Speaker 1: of fighting to try to keep his job on, So
Speaker 1: I think that was a little bit more motivation and
Speaker 1: trying to knock him out of the playoffs. Calvin, you
Speaker 1: mentioned after the game yesterday that you had felt it
Speaker 1: was kind of meant to be that you guys would
Speaker 1: being would end up in the playoffs. Uh, why do
Speaker 1: you feel that way? What made you kind of feel
Speaker 1: strongly that that's sort of how it convanted me? What
Speaker 1: was the end of talent is there? Um? You know,
Speaker 1: just what's being the offense before doing training camp? Um
Speaker 1: that everything, I mean, watching the whole thing kind of
Speaker 1: come together, you know, I feel it's the ingredients were there.
Speaker 1: It kind of reminded me of two thousand tends and
Speaker 1: you you know, got FD Jason player. No guys um
Speaker 1: maybe not having much talent that you know as far
Speaker 1: as older talents in that year, but you know, it
Speaker 1: was the same type of feeling um and we had
Speaker 1: some rough spots in that year too. I mean it
Speaker 1: wasn't just smooth, father, So I said that the agreedients, whatever,
Speaker 1: it just was. You know, everybody could leave and then
Speaker 1: you know it's coming together
