Speaker 1: Guys roll you said during the week that you saw
Speaker 1: a lot of Seattles defense. What we saw from Baltimore
Speaker 1: last year with Mike McDonald but obviously performed, were the
Speaker 1: things you saw in this game. You kind of thought, Okay,
Speaker 1: I see this, and now I know how to navigate it.
Speaker 2: I mean sort of.
Speaker 3: Uh, I think just going into the end of the game,
Speaker 3: you know, it was if they run this, this is
Speaker 3: my answer, and simple as that. I just try to
Speaker 3: keep it simple and obviously check the ball down when
Speaker 3: I needed to, and and hit my number one or
Speaker 3: number two in my progression, uh as efficiently as I could.
Speaker 2: And and I just kept it simple. You know.
Speaker 3: Last year in that game, I feel like I just
Speaker 3: got out of rhythm and I was trying to force
Speaker 3: stuff and and it just I just wasn't playing in
Speaker 3: the right mindset of being aggressive, being smart and taking
Speaker 3: what the defense gave me. So I learned my lesson
Speaker 3: in that game. And then uh, coming into this game,
Speaker 3: obviously new personnel. It is the Seahawks, not the Ravens,
Speaker 3: and and so for me, it was all right, similar scheme, yes,
Speaker 3: but this is what we're trying to tack and and
Speaker 3: how can I be efficient as best as I can.
Speaker 2: So that's my mindset. You mentioned kind of the need to.
Speaker 3: Find your identity as a team, and you have a
Speaker 3: game like this that you need to win, and then
Speaker 3: you have some injuries and you have unseen replays.
Speaker 2: And all these things kind of going against you. What
Speaker 2: kind of step towards finding your identity do you think
Speaker 2: you took?
Speaker 1: Time?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, obviously there's always gonna be stuff that
Speaker 3: you can clean up. And you know, for us, our
Speaker 3: standards is high here and so I think a lot
Speaker 3: of us will go to all right, like we could
Speaker 3: have done this or that and be better here. But
Speaker 3: I think at the end of the day, man, it's
Speaker 3: it's a it's a team sport. And so to go
Speaker 3: four quarters with all these different kinds of emotions and
Speaker 3: parts of the game and to be able to rally
Speaker 3: together and defense get a turnover and then us score
Speaker 3: a touchdount at the end, and uh, it's just that's
Speaker 3: team football, man, and that's the sport that we play.
Speaker 3: So I feel like we did take uh step in
Speaker 3: the right direction for sure, And we're always gonna have
Speaker 3: stuff that We're gonna be hard on ourselves.
Speaker 2: And need to grow and get better at.
Speaker 3: But I really do think that we all as a
Speaker 3: team came together and found a way today really well.
Speaker 1: So touchdown passes to kill and this trust.
Speaker 3: Value with him, yeah, I mean the first one or both.
Speaker 3: The first one, man, yeah, just obviously a third down play,
Speaker 3: but for us, I saw just him have leverage on
Speaker 3: the outside and I.
Speaker 2: Just needed to give him some space.
Speaker 3: He did a great job of breaking down and being
Speaker 3: at the right depth and the landmark, and he's really
Speaker 3: good at that. And so for me, it's just trusting
Speaker 3: and laying it on the sideline knowing that my guy
Speaker 3: can go get it. And then the fact that he
Speaker 3: kept his two feet and it was crazy, so awesome
Speaker 3: job on that. And then the second one, same thing
Speaker 3: that it was pretty tight coverage, We had safety coming
Speaker 3: down on him and then he crossed face tight window
Speaker 3: and it just comes down to that component of trust, man.
Speaker 3: That's how that's both of them. Both touchdowns were just
Speaker 3: a trust factor.
Speaker 2: So some that we've.
Speaker 3: Continued to grow at, you know, throughout the off season
Speaker 3: and and throughout the games that we've played together, and
Speaker 3: then tonight it showed really well, So very proud of him.
Speaker 1: Did this feel like how it should feel like. Did
Speaker 1: you kind of feel like this was a get right.
Speaker 2: Kind of game for the offense?
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, every opper we step out in the field, man,
Speaker 3: we want to do that.
Speaker 2: We want to get better and prove to.
Speaker 3: Ourselves that, you know, we're gonna play at the standard
Speaker 3: that we that we need to play at and that
Speaker 3: we're capable of playing at.
Speaker 2: And so tonight was another opportunity.
Speaker 3: It was a Thursday night game and a great, great
Speaker 3: team in the Seahawks, great environment, and so for us
Speaker 3: to come out and just do our job, do it
Speaker 3: well and be efficient. I thought for all of us
Speaker 3: it was, like I said, the right step in the
Speaker 3: right direction, and so, uh, there's stuff that we can
Speaker 3: still get better at. But more than anything, man, I'm
Speaker 3: I'm proud of just how how we all stuck together,
Speaker 3: man as a unit. And when guy just got banged
Speaker 3: up or went down, the next guy came in and
Speaker 3: did their job really well. So that's a good sign
Speaker 3: for all of us and we just got to continue
Speaker 3: to walk this road together. Yeah, it was awesome just
Speaker 3: seeing Ernardo get his interception Malick on the defensive side, man,
Speaker 3: that always fires us up on on the offense and
Speaker 3: and then obviously Isaac getting in at the end and
Speaker 3: and pulling away sort of like a little throwback memory
Speaker 3: of like when Jordan Mason got a couple of years
Speaker 3: ago and he had his run at the end, and
Speaker 3: uh so, but for those guys to step in, man,
Speaker 3: it's the NFL, it's you know, the Saint College, and
Speaker 3: it's uh you know, it's the real deal. You're playing
Speaker 3: against the best of the best. And so for those
Speaker 3: guys to show up on Thursday night, a primetime game
Speaker 3: like that, it means a lot to all of us
Speaker 3: as a team and and them showing that so we
Speaker 3: all got their backs and we're going to continue to
Speaker 3: grow together.
Speaker 2: Thanks good Thanks guys here
