Speaker 1: Just overall very proud of this group. Um, just how

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: resilient they are, you know, um to bounce back from

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: a you know, from a lost last weekend to putting

4
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: things together this weekend against the division opponent who I

5
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for obviously, you know, for

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,159

00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 1: our guys the way they worked in practice this week

8
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: and and how they how they came out and really, um,

9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: you know, to charge of this game from the from

10
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 1: the opening opening drive film during weekend leading off this

11
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 1: game that really allowed you to kin and totally shut

12
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: down the run game and the coals and therefore take

13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: them out of so much of what they wanted. You know,

14
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you a lot of respect for their run

15
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: game and and and Stewart and the guys. I mean,

16
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: they do a great job. It's nothing that you see

17
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: on tape, right, It's just about It's about us. It's

18
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: about being being physical, right and and just understanding to

19
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: stay discipline in the in your run fits and your

20
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: your eye discipline on things. And um, uh just our

21
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: guys did a great job, you know, just rallying to

22
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: the ball, getting him on the ground. It was a

23
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: focus for us this week in practice, and um, just

24
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: a credit to how how hard our guys worked up

25
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: to to you know, um understand and then and then

26
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:23,559
Speaker 1: you know, eliminate the run. What were you? What were you?

27
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: What did you have in your game plan that kind

28
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: of maybe they do from taking the shots down? Feel

29
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: this whole lot undernea of media type stuff. Was that

30
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: game or was that more? It's it was a little both,

31
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: you know, and and and and Gus Bradley's uh, gosh,

32
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: he's he's great at what he does. Um. And what

33
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: I appreciate about you know, Gus and his scheme is

34
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: is they they kind of just show you one thing.

35
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: He'll mix it, but he'll show you one thing, and

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: you gotta stay completely disciplined with going against a guy

37
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: like like Coach Bradley. And um, I thought our guys

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: did that. You know, Trevor was efficient, got the ball

39
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: out of his hand. Some of it was by play

40
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: call and designed to to help him a little bit. Um.

41
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: And you know, we we had moments where we had

42
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: some shots dialed it just you know, for whatever reason,

43
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: we also had them you know, alerted to some runs

44
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: and they took it away. So we had to run

45
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: the football in no situations. So it's hard to you know,

46
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: express that and explain that when you you know, obviously,

47
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: when you're not in a game plan meeting and and

48
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: understand that koun of what we're trying to get done. Uh,

49
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball right out of the gate,

50
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: really clicking for you today, dog is a coach. Can

51
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: you feel it, especially offensively early in the game, that

52
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 1: that you know it's gonna work on this particular day,

53
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: you hope? Uh, you know, I mean, you got a

54
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: lot of football left and and it's a sixty minute game,

55
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: and you just gotta take him one play at a time.

56
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: And you know, one thing I learned a long long

57
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: time ago is you never get too high and you

58
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: never get too low. You know, it's a sixty minute

59
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: football game. Listen, they were they were down I think

60
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: twenty to three last weekend and came back and tied

61
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: that football game. So anything is possible. Um, we just

62
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: have to stick to our process and stick to what

63
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: we're doing. And I know it's an old adage, but

64
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: I wonder if it's true. Always been told the coach

65
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: is one of the most about their team between game

66
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: one and game two. Did you learn anything about your

67
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: football team today? I just learned that that this this

68
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: group is eager to win. They want to win, and

69
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 1: and and they put in the hard work during the week.

70
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: And that's something I've been very proud of this group

71
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: and and really appreciate what they've done and how they've

72
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: been able to take the mistakes from a week ago

73
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: and and you know, sort of minimize them going into

74
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: this week and really attacking the game plan, um, and

75
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: really just attacking their job coach over here. Fourth first

76
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: drive at the game, you had a fourth down and situation,

77
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: it was a fourth and four and you went for

78
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: it at that point. Was that more of the to

79
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: push them to that confidence level that you need them

80
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: to be because you dominated the time of possession today. Yeah,

81
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: I mean it's just a credit to the guys execution there.

82
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: I think it was a great, great throw and catch

83
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: to do Esa Jones to get the first down. Um,

84
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: you know, and yeah, and it's it's we're in one

85
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: of those areas of the field where it's a little

86
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: bit a little bit great, too long for a field

87
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: goal and maybe too short for a punt, and you

88
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: know you're okay if you don't make it, but you know,

89
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna try to be as aggressive as possible,

90
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: you know, give our guys opportunities. I think I think

91
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: once we got that one and another one after that,

92
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: it just kind of felt comfortable for them. And we

93
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: just got to continue to work those scenarios and and um,

94
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, prepare our football team that way, and and

95
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: it does it does help the confidence of the team,

96
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: you know when you do go for one on fourth

97
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: down and you get it, uh, and stay on the

98
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: field and we we we ended up with points there. Doug.

99
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: There's a little chatter last week, some of them by

100
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: people like us, about Trevor's accuracy issues. But today, I'm

101
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: sure this is his best completion percentage of his career.

102
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: But did you guys work on anything in a ticular

103
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: rhythm timing stuff you talked about the pitch and runs,

104
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: did you and and in practice? So did he really

105
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: get diligent about trying to improve his accurate see? Um,

106
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: you know, every every week we work on that kind

107
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 1: of stuff, you know, and and try to be as

108
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: efficient as possible. And you know, my hat's off to

109
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: you know, press Taylor the coordinator and Jim Bob, Mike McCoy,

110
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: the guys and for really you know, putting together a

111
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: great plan and and really helping Trevor. You know. Um,

112
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: that's something that we kind as a coaching staff kind

113
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: of take away, you know, even from the week before,

114
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: you know, And we gotta help our guys, right we

115
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: we just can't just you know, throw a bunch of

116
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: players out there and expect him to execute. We've got

117
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: to help him, right, So that's why we practice, That's

118
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: why we go out and do the things we do.

119
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: And I thought Trevor really did an outstanding job today

120
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: getting the ball out of his hand. Uh, he saw

121
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: things really well. Uh there were a lot of catch

122
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, catch break tackles, get first downs, things like that.

123
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: He threw hot a couple of times. So let's those

124
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: are all the things that he's capable of doing. And yeah,

125
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: we continue to work on that stuff, you know, every week. Defensively,

126
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: we've been talking about whether this is how good this

127
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: Stevens could be for a while now. Was this maybe

128
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: more of what you thought it could be? And last week, yeah,

129
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: I mean they played they played extremely well. We know,

130
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: we know Indy was down a couple of their you know,

131
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: pass catchers and good pass catchers, so you know who knows.

132
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what. My hats off to, you know,

133
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: Mike Caldwell. Great defensive plan the guys were, you know,

134
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,239
Speaker 1: they executed it during the week in practice, and again

135
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of to me. That's where that's where

136
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 1: you win football games is during the week and then

137
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: you just go out and execute the plan. And for

138
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: them to fly around today and do the things they did,

139
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,919
Speaker 1: get after the quarterback, create turnovers, all the things we

140
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: talked about. We saw it and and um, you know,

141
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: things are starting to kind of I think click for guys,

142
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: you know, and still a lot of football ahead of us.

143
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: You know, we've got to play this team again, and

144
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: and we just got another another great opponent next week. Coach.

145
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: We know that this is a passing league now, but

146
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: we saw what seemed to be a concerted effort to

147
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: really maintain balance today. I think thirty pass attempts, thirty

148
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: seven run attempts. Was that in the back of your

149
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: mind or were you just calling the game in the flow?

150
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 1: You know, again, I seem to learn from experience, but

151
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 1: you do it. It It takes to win. Bottom line, you

152
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: do what it takes to win. If that means running

153
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: it thirty seven times or forty seven times, fifty times

154
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: or ten times, you know it. Just you do what

155
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: it takes to win the football game, right and and um,

156
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: it was just a great opportunity. And um, you know

157
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: again credit the offensive line. Phil Ralsher had those guys

158
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: prepared and and uh good. It was good balance overall.

159
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: It was great balance for US coach Will Brown w

160
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: j c T News. When you were hired, you talked

161
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: about the process and you said it would take a

162
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: while to to kind of you get to where you

163
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: wanted to go, and you needed some patients from the fans.

164
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: But to be able to have your performance like this

165
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: in the home opener, how much do you think that

166
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: this will will keep fans engaged and keep that that

167
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: bond between the team and the fans stronger than it

168
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: might have been in previous years. Yeah, I think, you know,

169
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: I thought we had a really good crowd today. They

170
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: got they got loud on a couple of those defensive

171
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: fourth down plays, you know, in the second half, and

172
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: that was good to see the guys out there. I

173
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: think I think you know you listen, do you get

174
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: paid to win games? Right? You win fans? The fans

175
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: show up, right, I'm a fan. I want to go

176
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: watch a winner. So you know I'll pay money to

177
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: go see a winner. Right. So we have to we

178
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: have to just win games. This is a great start today.

179
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: There's a lot of football left and and uh. But

180
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: the crowd was excellent today. Um, hats off to them.

181
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: They showed up even after the rainstorm there in the

182
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: first half. But um, you know, credit to them, and

183
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: hopefully hopefully we can we can keep the momentum. Apologize

184
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: if you've already been asked. Except for the deep ball

185
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: that almost got intercepted early on the game, it seemed

186
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: like Trevor was just on point with just about everything,

187
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: his decision making, where he went with the ball, things

188
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: like that, could you talk a little bit about that?

189
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: Do you always bring up the negative first? You know

190
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: that holding call on second and ten and but the

191
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: third Um, what was your question with the exception of

192
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: I won't mention it. Uh. It seemed like Trevor was

193
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: pretty much on point with everything today, with where he

194
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: not just his throws, but where he went with the ball,

195
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: where he decided to go with it. Yeah, you know,

196
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: a lot of it was by design, you know, the

197
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: play design to play call at the time. You know,

198
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,559
Speaker 1: we worked on that stuff in practice this week. We

199
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 1: we knew, you know, we knew going into this game. Listen,

200
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: this is a Gust Bradley defense. They're gonna be sound

201
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: at what they do. They're gonna be in the right spots.

202
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: So we have to be in the right spots. And

203
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: we have to be disciplined in the passing game. And

204
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 1: and there are some areas of the field that you

205
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: can you can try to you know, get after and

206
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: and but yet the ball has to come out on

207
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: time because they rally and tackle. So I thought Trevor

208
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: did a did a great job in that, you know,

209
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 1: aspect of just getting the ball out of his hand,

210
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: getting it to the right spot. Guys stayed disciplined in

211
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: the game plan like we are in the in the game,

212
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: like we talked about, and and Um executed that well.

213
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: As a follow up in terms of all three phases.

214
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: Is close to the kind of game that goes just

215
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: the way you draw it up, I would have to say, so,

216
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: you know, um, you know, maybe shy the Super Bowl

217
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, you know. But but um, yeah,

218
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: I mean the guys listening, they they took full advantage

219
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: of the week of practice and and uh you know,

220
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: uh understood the game plan. I challenged them to stay

221
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: in their playbooks and know the know the game plan

222
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: inside out all three phases. They did that and when

223
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: they do that, you can you can kind of see

224
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: the execution on the field. No negativity that last question. Yeah, um, coach, Um,

225
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: we saw two touchdown passes from uh Trevor Lawrence and

226
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: Christen Kirk. Is that a connection that you've seen growing

227
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: in practice or was it just the right place, right time? Um,

228
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: great play execution today. Yeah, No, it's it's been. It's

229
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 1: something that we started back in the spring, you know,

230
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: with with those two kind of building that relationship and

231
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: and um, you know, Christians a great player. That's why

232
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 1: we went out and got him in free agency. And

233
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: you can see it now, you know, two weeks in

234
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: a row, some of the plays that he's made and

235
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: he's made an impact for our offense. But um, yeah,

236
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: it's just it's just a matter of them just continuing

237
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: to work, stay on the same page. And um, you

238
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: know again, you know, coming up with game plans that

239
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: that that helped Christian you know, get open and Trevor

240
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: to find him. Did you get a game ball in

241
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: the locker room? I did? You did? How meaningful was that?

242
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: And and did you almost run out of game balls

243
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: because so many other guys had so many big performance?

244
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: I mean it's special, it's special. You know, it's my

245
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: first win obviously is head coach here. But it's a

246
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 1: team win, you know, and we celebrate as the team

247
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 1: and and uh, I appreciate that and it will definitely

248
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,479
Speaker 1: go on the on the mantel at the house. But um,

249
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 1: you know, my hats off to those guys in the

250
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: locker room. They're the ones that did it. You know, Um,

251
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 1: I didn't get hit. I didn't have to throw any

252
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: passes or run the ball. So um, credit to the

253
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: credit to the team. In all seriousness, you do you

254
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: only have six division games, so starting out one and

255
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: oh how important is that in the race to win

256
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: this thing? And you know it's it's something we talked

Speaker 1: time we play them. And um, you know, in order

262
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: in order for any team, you know, to get to

263
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 1: the postseason, you gotta be able to win your division, right,
