1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: George walked us through what you what you saw the

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: first touchdown?

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was just a normal keeper that

4
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 2: we had up, you know, I got I got the edge.

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 2: Just felt like I had a lot of time. The

6
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 2: smart decisions probably just you know, continue to run, try

7
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: to get as many yards as I can instead of

8
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 2: you know, putting the ball up like I did. But

9
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: I saw Ba in the back of the end zone

10
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 2: sort of run the space George as well, and I

11
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: was I just put it up towards the back and

12
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 2: BA came down with it. But yeah, I'm not necessarily

13
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 2: proud of that play, honestly. I mean, yes, there's a

14
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 2: touchdown and everything. Great. BA made a great play, but

15
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: I gotta be smart with the ball and and if anything,

16
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 2: I sh I should have ran the ball.

17
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: So among your worst decisions, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree.

18
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 2: I agree. So yeah, indic that you like.

19
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: Were kind of doing this with your head to try

20
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: and throw the defense.

21
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just felt space on the left side, so

22
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 2: I sort of nodded like going right, and he literally

23
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: went right. I was trying to, like, you know, get

24
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: the defense to think I'm gonna throw back right, but

25
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 2: then have him go left. So It's just something that

26
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: you know, we gotta get in the same page about.

27
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: So decisions are probably happy about the touchdown to kill

28
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: How can how much do you feel that pressure that's

29
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:17,839
Speaker 1: kind of coming.

30
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: Around and what does it take to stand in there

31
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 2: and deliver that ball knowing that you're probably get hit situation? Yeah,

32
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 2: I mean just what they're they were they were playing man,

33
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: So I knew George just needed some time to get outside,

34
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: you know, one on one with that backer, and so

35
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 2: knowing that and then you know, seeing the safety sort

36
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 2: of cut and take Ba over the middle, I was

37
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: all right, this is George one on one. So yeah,

38
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 2: I had some pressure and stuff, but I just gotta

39
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 2: get George a chance. And George did a great job

40
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: getting underneath it and going all the way with that

41
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: sweet bron.

42
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: How big was this win for me? As just how

43
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: much did.

44
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: You do this? Yeah, it's huge. You know, when you

45
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 2: you lose three in a row, obviously it's like, man,

46
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 2: you want to get back on track. But honestly, we've

47
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: taken every single game, you know, very seriously, and and

48
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: we come come to work. You know, we never got

49
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: complacent or anything. There's some things that haven't gone our

50
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: way a couple of plays within the last game, last

51
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: couple of games. But for this one came with the

52
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: right mindset of you know, backs against the wall in

53
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: a sense, and you know, let's play like hungry again.

54
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: So I think that was the mindset. But overall, man,

55
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: we're just trying to play Niner football.

56
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: What do you feeling in any way coming off those

57
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: three losses?

58
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: What do you mean feeling it? What are you feeling dated?

59
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 2: A little bit more pressure, a little bit more on you. Uh,

60
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: I guess a little bit. You know, when you lose

61
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 2: games in the NFL, it's like, you know, there's a standard,

62
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: especially with this organization. You know, we all demand a

63
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: lot out of ourselves. And so I was more, you know,

64
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: feeling the pressures just within myself, like, man, I need

65
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 2: to play better because of you know, how I've played

66
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 2: in the past, you know, And so that's where I

67
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 2: was at with it. But you know, I came into

68
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: this game with the clear mindset of, Man, I got

69
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 2: dudes around me, got a great defense, be smart with

70
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 2: the ball, and make plays, you know, sort of play

71
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: free in terms of cutting it loose, but also playing

72
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: within the scheme and being smart with the ball. So

73
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 2: that's where I was at, and you gotta keep playing

74
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: like that move forward.

75
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: Do you feel like this was the offensive best performance

76
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: of the season. You guys didn't have a single turn

77
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:09,519
Speaker 1: on you didn't turn.

78
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 2: The ball over.

79
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: I mean, was it the best performance of this team

80
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: so far the season offensively?

81
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: Man's stuff to say. I haven't really watched the film

82
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: or anything yet, but I think there's still, you know,

83
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: some stuff left out there, you know, that we could

84
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 2: all learn from. I mean, I think the Dallas game

85
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 2: there was a couple of drives where we were off,

86
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 2: but I felt that one was pretty good, and so

87
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: this one too, Like yeah, once we're once we're clicking,

88
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 2: you know, like today we felt good, you know, putting

89
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 2: points up on the board, defense, getting stops, turned the

90
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 2: ball over. It was just really good team football. We

91
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: felt that today. But still there's some drives out there

92
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: that can be made, and you know, we'll learn from it. Still.

93
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: So you guys talk about complimentary and the team football

94
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: like you just did. Is there a tangible boost that

95
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: you feel when the defense had that stop to three

96
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: and out to start the game offensively? Can you feel

97
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: to have that momentum with your own unit.

98
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean especially you know, coming and starting off

99
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: the game with some momentum. You know, defense gets a stop,

100
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 2: three and out, boom, and then we are moving, you know,

101
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: from the get go with some the first couple of plays,

102
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 2: we just felt the momentum. It's huge and so our

103
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: defense has done a great job with that. And anytime

104
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: we've had success, you know, defense is always you know,

105
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: the side of the ball to really you know, start

106
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 2: something up. I feel like, you know, getting a turnover,

107
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 2: getting the three and out and then it you know,

108
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 2: encourages us to go out and do our things. So

109
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 2: very blessed to have our defense.

110
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: Positive spin on that for positive because it was a touchdown.

111
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: But the throw to you, the fact that that was

112
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: one of your first throws. You have been scrutinized, like

113
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: you gotta be careful with the ball. I mean you

114
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: know that. But the anyway, the fact that you obviously

115
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: weren't scared and you still flunging it. I mean, I

116
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: guess that show your mindset is still Yeah, I gotta

117
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: be careful, but I'm not gonna lose that mentality.

118
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know the biggest thing is I think just

119
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 2: playing within our scheme, how you know, Shanahan's calling plays,

120
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: how Greasey's coaching us up with just our reads, our footwork,

121
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 2: progression and everything playing within that, and then there's opportunities

122
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 2: where if Steff breaks down, all right, now let's go play,

123
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: you know, so backyard football esque type of plays. But

124
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: to say I'm searching for those kind of plays, that's wrong.

125
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: And so yeah, going into this game, you gotta play

126
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 2: like that. I still, you know, I play football and

127
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: then I'm aggressive with what I do and how I

128
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 2: throw the ball, and but I still have to learn,

129
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: you know, time times in the game and situations where

130
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 2: I gotta be smart with the ball. So that's something

131
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 2: I gonna continue to learn. But at the same time,

132
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: you know, they do a good job of not just

133
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: handcuffing me. You know, they let me play play quarterback

134
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 2: in an aggressive way and get the ball to our

135
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: guys when they're open.

136
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,799
Speaker 1: Car was on you, Christian was about to maybe score

137
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 1: the eighteen. How about the family Tournament?

138
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Well, after the touchdown of Juice, I sort

139
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: of felt bad. I was like, we came off the

140
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 2: sideline and guys were talking about it. I'm like, oh man,

141
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 2: I'm like, dang it, like I was mad, sort of

142
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: obviously scored a touchdown, it's the biggest thing. But you know,

143
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 2: then the next drive, we're like, let's drive for Christian

144
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 2: and try to get them a touch This is huge,

145
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 2: and so yeah, at the end, man, it's like we

146
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: all wanted it for him. Every guy on this team

147
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 2: wanted it for Christian. And then obviously I think Christian

148
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 2: wants it more than anybody, Like he's a humble guy,

149
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 2: wants to win, so he puts the team first. But

150
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 2: in that moment, everybody wanted it for Christian, so it hurts.

151
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,559
Speaker 2: And but at the same time, he's got a long

152
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 2: career out of him, and I told him we'll be

153
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 2: able to do it again, so all

154
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: Yeah,
