1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: Um, it's like I told the guys a second ago

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: that this game tonight sort of uh kind of symbolizes

3
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: our season. You know. Um, there were some struggles, there

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,239
Speaker 1: was some highs and lows, you know, but in the end,

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: we had the victory. And you know, I'm so proud

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: of the guys for the way they have just all

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: season long, just hung together and and you know, through

8
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: the face of adversity at times and even through some

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: of the high moments, you know, just we just stayed

Speaker 1: single week and and it it showed. I mean it

14
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: just you know, it's it's not gonna be easy. These

15
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: games are never easy. And and I don't care, you

16
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: know what the score is. I just want more points

17
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: than the opponent. And um, that's a great football team.

18
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: You know, My hats off to Mike. He had his

00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: a physical game with them, and um, but just so

21
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: happy and proud, happy for for Mr Kahan obviously, Um,

22
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,640

23
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: wins and UM, just so happy that we were able

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: to to do that for him today as well. Can

25
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: you describe ray Sean strip sack and Josh Allen's touchdown?

26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: How that play developed for you guys? I mean, you know,

27
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: as a coach, I mean you're excited, but as a coach,

28
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: you go, okay, it's got to go to replay. UM,

29
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: and and then when it when it was confirmed, it's

30
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: just it's the break we needed. I mean again, it's

31
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: just how the defense. I think defense and special teams

32
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: won this football game for us. And UM, and that's okay,

33
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: it's okay, and uh we found a way. Um, that

34
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: was a great play. We needed it. We needed to

35
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: find a way. Guys did it. Um, hats off to

36
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: the defense and our special teams, Agnew and the guys

37
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: did do a heck of a job. A coach, congrats.

38
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: How far has this team come this season to be

39
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: able to play and win a game like this one?

40
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: And we've come so far, you know, I mean, you know,

41
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: just think about back in April and May when we

42
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: first got together. You know, you're trying to teach a

43
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: winning culture. You're trying to flip you know, a script,

44
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: so to speak, and and uh, you're just not sure

45
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: until you start playing games just how that's gonna look.

46
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: And you know, listen, these guys they trusted me. I

47
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 1: trusted them. Um you know, they never never wavered. And

48
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: and to get a game like this, you know down

49
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 1: the strap, I mean it's just it's pretty incredible, you know,

50
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: to to win nine nine games in our first year together. Um,

51
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: it's pretty uh, pretty impressive for for the guys in

52
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: the locker room. And what did you think about the

53
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: environment and the fans here at the Bank tonight? I mean,

54
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: it was it was electric. It was what we were

55
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: hoping for and and the crowd delivered. It was loud,

56
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: they stayed to the end. I mean, I'm very proud

57
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: of our fans. Um, we're gonna need him again, you know,

58
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: in a week or so, and uh, um, just just

59
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: a great, great way to cap off the regular season. Um,

60
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: you know, as we head into the postseason and um,

61
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,839
Speaker 1: you know we're gonna need him again, so let's let's

62
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: gear up and get ready. It was awesome though, coach, congratulations. Obviously,

63
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: the Dallas games show what home Field could bandage with

64
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: your twelfth man and boy did it come up big today.

65
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: The louder it became. You know, when you took this job,

66
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: you know, this is a town waiting. Knew we erupt

67
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: here with some success and we saw that with the

68
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: twelfth Man. Seattle is known for about boy Jacksonville's waiting

69
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: new erupt here. Does that really make you feel pretty

70
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: enthusiastic about what lives? I add, Yeah, I mean that's

71
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: just it, you know. I mean, listen, we understand too

72
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: that you know, we've got to do our jobs and

73
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: we've got to win football games and ready to get

74
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: crowds like that. You gotta win on the field. And

75
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: and that's what our guys have done here in the

76
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: second half of the season. They put themselves in this position.

77
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: We we talked about playing meeting meaningful games in the

78
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: month of December and January, and so here we are

79
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: and and the more success we have, the fans will

80
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: show up. And they did that and so very proud

81
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: of our fans. Um. Again, it was a great atmosphere,

82
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: just uh, you know, electric and um loud, everything we expected.

83
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: I think what was needed was trust. Um, I think

84
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: trust was broken with this team. You know when I

85
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: when I took the job, and so I had to

86
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: regain their trust as a coach. And you know, it's

87
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: not a it's not an overnight I said this way

88
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: back then. It's not an overnight fix. It's gonna take it.

89
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: It's gonna take a process, it's gonna take a journey.

90
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: And I think they saw right away that you know

91
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: that they can trust in me, I can trust in them.

92
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: And and you know, it's one of the things I'm

93
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: always gonna do is I'm gonna shoot them straight and

94
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: be honest with them. The transparency is key, the communication

95
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: is key. And I think we just built over time

96
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: that that trust factor and it began to show, um,

97
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: you know, throughout the course of the year. And I

98
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: think that's why you know, we hung together. Um you know,

99
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: in the middle part of our year. That month of October,

100
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: you know, you have five straight losses. It could it

101
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: could go sideways in a hurry, and and it didn't,

102
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: and we just had to, you know, dig a little deeper.

103
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: And um, you know, it's not about coaching harder, or

104
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: playing harder, or practicing harder. Is none of that. It's

105
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: just you just gotta tighten a few things up. You

106
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: just gotta play a little bit better, um, you know,

107
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: and and and eliminate the mistakes. We did that and

108
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: and um, you know, uh, here we are. I mean

109
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: it's I think it means everything. You know to these

110
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: guys that have been here. You know, they were at

111
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: an ultimate low coming off last season obviously, and and um,

112
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: now they're they're right now, they're an ultimate high with

113
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: with more football to play. And so it's you know,

114
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: and that's really the the roller coaster of emotions that

115
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: a football season can can bring. But you know, these guys,

116
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: the guys that have been here, Um, you can see

117
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: it in their faces, just how how excited and proud

118
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: and and um, it's not relief, but it's it's um,

119
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: it's enthusiasm, and it's it's it means everything to them.

120
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: They take it to heart and and um, it's something

121
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: that we can we can continue to build upon. By

122
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,919
Speaker 1: by any we're not where we need to be or

123
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: want to be. But at the same time, you know,

124
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: we're building it, and we're building it one you know,

125
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,559
Speaker 1: kind of one piece, one player, one game at a time.

126
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: And this was a really good start for us this year. Okay, Doug,

127
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: you talked about the Josh Down touchdown. But just how

128
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: important was that early Tyson Campbell interception and how much

129
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: has he grown sort of over the course of the year.

130
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: Tyson's Tyson's improved so much through the course of the year.

131
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: And he's a he's a tough, tough player to throw

132
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: at and against, and he's so long and athletic and

133
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: to make plays like that, I mean, that's that's what

134
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: you know, that's what great corners in this league do.

135
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: And and he's been he's such a humble kid and

136
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: it just wants to learn and get better and the

137
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,119
Speaker 1: way he practices every day. Um, just a great uh,

138
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,679
Speaker 1: a great play, and then it really helped us to uh,

139
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, at least get three points on the board

140
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: at that time. Bruce Hope, Florida Star newspaper coach, you're

141
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: obviously a super Bowl winning champion. You know what it

142
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: takes to win at the highest level in this sport.

143
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: At what point this season did you start to see

144
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: your team take that turn or take that proverbial leap,

145
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: And what in particular did you see that allowed you

146
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: to know that those changes were happening and you were

147
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: starting to really make that step forward. You know, it

148
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: was somewhere in the middle of our middle part of

149
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: the year. It could have been somewhere in that you know,

150
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: that Denver Vegas sort of you know, Kansas City sort

151
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: of stretch of three games right in their middle of

152
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: our middle part of our season where you know, that's

153
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: that's where things could have really gotten out of hand

154
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: for us. Um and and listen, we just we just

155
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: continued to stay disciplined and what we did, um, and

156
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: what we were doing, UM, we continue to just build

157
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: uh And listen, we knew we knew that it was

158
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: gonna be about what we did. You know, I mean,

159
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: when we turned the ball over, that's us. When we

160
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: don't make tackles, that's us. When you know we we

161
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 1: miss field goals, actually that's us, right, It's it's it's

162
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: about us, and it's always gonna be about us. And

163
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: and I think that's when we realized that, hey, we've

164
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: got a pretty good football team if we could just

165
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: eliminate those mistakes we got into the by Um. You know,

166
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: obviously you think about the go back to the Raider game.

167
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: We're down, you know, down seventeen points in that game,

168
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: and there was no lynch and really at that moment,

169
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: I think is when we realized that that this football

170
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: team is a special team. We could make a we

171
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: can make a run at the end of the year

172
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: and see what happens. So is it more rewarding to

173
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: win this considering the whole you guys dug yourself in.

174
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: Is it more special for you and the players to

175
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: to claw out of that hole to win it like this?

176
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: You know, they're all it's hard to win in this

177
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 1: league period. Um. It takes a lot going your your way,

178
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: you know, and you cherish every every moment you have

179
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 1: because you never know. I mean, we we saw it

180
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: this past week. I mean we saw you never know

181
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: when it could be your last coaching day, playing day.

182
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: It's been a it's been a tough week for our

183

Speaker 1: you know, um every single day with Damar So every

00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: win is special. Um. It doesn't take away from you know,

188
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: what our team did this year. You know, UM, I'm

189
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: just proud of these guys obviously to be in this

190
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: position to be in the a f C South champion

191
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: and and just to know the journey that it took

192
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: us to get here. You know, Um, guys, stay humble,

193
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,840

194
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: a step in the direction that we want to go.

195
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: And and you know, I wanted to be sustainable. I

196
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: just don't want to be like, Okay, you were the

197
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: champs and you know, not in twenty three. I mean

198
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: you want to be competing for you know, this division

199
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: every year. And um, but it makes it, it makes

200
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: it special just because of the way, um, you know,

201
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: these guys battled and kind of what they've been through

202
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: in the last two years. Doug did did as a

203
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: play caller did as the game progressed into the second quarter?

204
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: Did you feel, all right, this is gonna be a

205
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: low scoring game. Did you kind of change? Did you

206
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: get more conservative as a play caller as the game

207
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: went along? Now, you know, not necessarily conservative, as much

208
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: as just trying to find things that would work. Um.

209
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: They did a great job with their front They changed

210
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: some things up from week fourteen, and and they pressured

211
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: us a little more off the edge. We didn't handle

212
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: it very well as an offense quite frankly, something we've

213
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: got to clean up or we're gonna continue to see it, um,

214
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: you know. And we still tried to take shots down

215
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: the field. We just some leakage in protection, um, you know,

216
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: whatever it might be. And you know, we an overthrow

217
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: in the end zone today. I mean, there's all kinds

218
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: of things in the offense just wasn't on point tonight.

219
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: But sometimes that's okay, right, But as a play caller,

220
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: you know, you're you're just you just trusted in your guys.

221
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: It's somewhere somebody's gonna make a play, um. And for us,

222
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: fortunately it was on the defensive side tonight, right making

223
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: a play. Special teams logan you know, kicked his tail

224
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: off as a punter. Um. But now we just you know,

225
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: we'd try to stay stay aggressive as we could, trying

226
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: to find things that that worked. Coach Derrick Henry is

227
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, do you coach the defense to say, just

228
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: to hang in there and you know you'll get a

229
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 1: play at the end of the day. You coached the

230
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: kind of defensive game plan that kind of went out

231
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: today that they kind of had him most of the game,

232
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: and then just finishing the game. Derek's a great back. Um,

233
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: he's he's big, he's powerful, he's fast, and and you know,

234
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: we knew this was gonna be one of those games

235
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: where you know you kind of have to big your

236
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: bring your your big boy pads as we call it,

237
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: and you know you're gonna have to bow up because

238
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's gonna get five six seven yards

239
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: every time. And um, you know, credit to the defense,

240
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you know kept him I think two three

241
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: and a half or three points six or so yards

242
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: I mean, and just you know, you have to commit

243
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: to living guys, you know, against a good back like that.

244
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: And and our guys did a nice job. We had

245
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: an extra d lineman in there, you know, in our

246
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 1: game plan this week, and um, you know you're always

247
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: gonna be fighting to the end. Um because that run

248
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: game that they have can can keep you in a

249
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: lot of ball games. Doug, you get an opportunity now

250
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 1: to exhale a little bit. And you know you had

251
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: one day short. Now tomorrow you can turn that into

252
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: an extra day. And I'm sorry, I apologize. I don't

253
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: remember if in Philly you had a Saturday Sunday playoff

254
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: type of situation, but you knew who your opponent would be.

255
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: When you wake up in the morning, you still don't

256
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 1: know who it's going to be. What's that going to

257
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 1: be like? The kind of monitor the one o'clock, four

258
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: o'clock games trying to figure out what it's gonna be

259
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 1: like for you. Yeah, I mean, you know, when I

260
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 1: was in Philly, um, we always played for the division

261
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: on Sunday, so we kind of knew at the end

262
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: of that day what was gonna happen. This is a

263
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: little unique because it was on it's on Saturday, and

264
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, we have a good idea of who it

265
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 1: might be. But really, until tomorrow is finished, um, you know,

266
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: we really won't know. But but I think history, um,

267
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: history says that the a f C South winner usually

268
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: plays on Saturday. So we should have at least seven days,

269
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: you know, to prepare, which I think is a good thing. Um.

270
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: And so we'll treat tomorrow like a Monday, you know. UM,

271
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: let the guys come in, sleep in, and if they

272
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: want to go to church, they can go to church

273
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: and then come in here um to our afternoon and

274
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: and and get ready for potential Saturday game. Thank you,

275
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: all right? Thanks guys,
