1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Hey, Alfred, um, you scored two touchdowns today. I'm just

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: curiously considering, you know, the way your career has gone

3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. If if you ever had

4
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: any doubt that you get an opportunity to do something

5
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 1: like this, No, I didn't. Oh no, I'm gonna be honest.

6
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: Most days I didn't doubt. But there was a couple

7
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: of days I doubt. I'm like, man, why am I training?

8
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: Why am I doing this? Um? It doesn't it looks bleak,

9
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: you know, but uh, you know, I was always reminded why,

10
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 1: and I kept going, and um, opportunity presented this some

11
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 1: I'm super thankful. It's been a while since I got

12
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: an end zone. So I felt really good today to

13
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: get into not once but twice. Shout out to Wayne.

14
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: But setting both of those up, all right, what actually

15
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 1: worked on that drive that uh you know sprung Wayne?

16
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: And then obviously, I mean you guys seemed like you

17
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,599
Speaker 1: just set the tone there after the first half kind

18
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: of a you know, it seemed to be a little conservative.

19
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: I mean, did you see the dominance coming in the

20
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: second half? For is that drive kind of a wake

21
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: up ball? Oh? Yes? We Uh. One of the things

22
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: we do really well is communicate me and Wayne with

23
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: UH Dion and uh a lot as well as the

24
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: coach Um. When we were talking, like He's like, they

25
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: can't keep this up the entire game. There's no way.

26
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: They basically feel like they came out and played us

27
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: like the Bengals did. They wanted to stack the box,

28
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: they wanted to shoot every gap. They wanted to basically

29
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: make us one dimensional, you know, especially after Daniel went down,

30
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: they feel like whatever reason, like, well if we can

31
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: take them out and make it that much harder for them,

32
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: But we knew that, like, we have to keep the

33
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: run game going, so we have to community and run hard.

34
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 1: And Wayne has been an amazing job at that, and

35
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean he like likes to fire up in all

36
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: of us. So you know, I wanted to do my part.

37
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: So we we knew it was gonna pop. And when

38
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: we came out and kept stacking, we was able to

39
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: get out on the edge and it was just a perfect,

40
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: perfect block and Wayne read it perfectly and he was

41
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: able to go down the sideline. So that definitely lit

42
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: a fire up, and not only just the running backs,

43
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: but also the old line old line and once you

44
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: get that going, you kind of get a steam roll effect.

45
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: You just want to keep going, keep going, and we

46
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: was able to do that for um. A couple of things.

47
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 1: On the touchdown catch, you had a lot of time

48
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: and the ball was up in the air a long time.

49
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: It looked like you almost kind of double cart it

50
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: a little bit carefully. UM uh So could you just

51
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: talk about that play that I have one more for

52
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: you right after? Oh no, I definitely double called it.

53
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: I was just so wide open. It was just I

54
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,679
Speaker 1: assumed somebody was gonna be there, So I think they

55
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: were planning the forest to run um, you know, a

56
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: gap on again, which I think that kind of drawed

57
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: him in. And you know, normally I don't do those

58
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: type of plays, so I think it just made it

59
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: work that much more. And it's just I was able

60
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: to just creep out into the flat and I was

61
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: I was so open. That's why I kind of like

62
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: double called it. Um. But that was actually my first

63
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: receiving touchdown, so yeah, so that was huge. I felt

64
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: really good to get in the end zone twice. First

65
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: receiving touchdown ever ever, Well, no, no, no no, it's since

66
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: since the pros I've had quite a few like high school,

67
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: college things like that, but in the pros, I just

68
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: didn't really have many opportunities. And what was cold like?

69
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he didn't throw for a lot

70
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: of yards. He made some you know, big plays through

71
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: we were touchdown past you used to Daniel Jones and

72
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: the huddling on the field, what was the like? I mean,

73
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: I've I've spent quite a bit of time with Colde

74
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: as well back in Washington, so it was for me,

75
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: it was it was easy. Um, it was comfortable. I

76
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: think he's very poised. I think he hilted up you

77
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: know what was giving him very well through the ball,

78
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 1: really well when he had to. He was magician. He

79
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: escaped some things, he was able to get out and

80
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: use his legs. So I mean he did a great job.

81
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: And like I said, I'm glad that it was a

82
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: great team win. We all rallied around him and right

83
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: around each other and was able to move the ball

84
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: down the field when it really mattered and slow the start.

85
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: But we finished wrong, so that's that's what really matters.

86
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah, I think you joined in week four,

87
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: so the team's only three and you come in, like,

88
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: what did you see from this team then, and did

89
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: you see that this team was able to put it

90
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: together where they have. I felt like it was a

91
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: very talented team, was like young in Summer Guards, but

92
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: it had like veteran talent um. But I feel like

93
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: it was like something that was missing. Um, I'm not

94
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: really sure what that was. But we I feel like

95
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: we've kind of figured it out, and I think more

96
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: guys are realizing like just how good we can be

97
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: and our google we are becoming. And I think once

98
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: you kind of get that that feel, he was like dang,

99
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: like okay, you get that win. It's like that felt good,

100
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: Like we want that feeling again. So it's like, what

101
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: do we need to do to continue to do, like

102
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: to continue to win. It's not easy to win any game,

103
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: like one game in this league, but to continue to win.

104
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: Then we have like four over the uh like it

105
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: was at four in a row. Now, I think I

106
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: really don't keep up with it. Okay, he's not in

107
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,119
Speaker 1: hiss he so I mean to do that. That's huge,

108
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: you know, And I've been on one of these runs before. Um,

109
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: a rookie and Washington we went you know, three and

110
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: six a bye week, we came out of the bye week.

111
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: We won seven games straight to make it the postseason

112
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: for the first time, and you know years that was huge.

113
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 1: But to do that you need not a group of

114
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: talented individuals. You need talent indivisions working together as a team.

115
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: And I think everyone sees the end goal. They see

116
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: the bigger picture and then I just focused on me

117
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: or stats or whatever. They focused on the big picture,

118
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: and that's winning games, and that's it. Takes it one

119
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: day at a time, one week at a time, and

120
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: one opponent at a time. And I think we're doing

121
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: a really good job of that. And it's exciting to win.

122
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: So once you get that, you kind of get that

123
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: it you want more of it. So I think that's

124
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: been exciting a lot of guys, like we need to

125
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: keep winning like we were in the first place, you know,

126
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: but like use that as few but not stay focused

127
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: on that that we lose sight of the bigger picture.

128
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: And I think we've been a really good job of

129
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: doing that so far. M m m m
