Speaker 1: You've always been the dominant player obviously, but it looks
Speaker 1: like this year it's you know, at another level. And
Speaker 1: the numbers too. What do you think the difference between
Speaker 1: I mean, would you agree with that? First of all?
Speaker 1: What do you think the difference sense? I mean, I
Speaker 1: think you know the biggest thing for me is, you know,
Speaker 1: they challenged me every day practice games, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I I listened. I listened my teammates challenge me. And
Speaker 1: you know, I respect Chris Long so much. And the
Speaker 1: thing about Chris is he challenged me every day, and
Speaker 1: uh you know what that is, you know, it just
Speaker 1: it just raises a bar for you if you're a player,
Speaker 1: you know, you got a guy like like Chris has
Speaker 1: been around for a long time and I just's my
Speaker 1: second year with him, and he challenged me every day,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know I respected and I accepted, and
Speaker 1: you know, go out on the field and and I
Speaker 1: show the world how does he challenge me? Just you know,
Speaker 1: just talks to me and Chris you know, maybe you
Speaker 1: can ask him about it, but uh, you know, just
Speaker 1: the way he U It's just Chris. You know, we
Speaker 1: have fun, but he know when it's serious. Um and
Speaker 1: it's time to go. I think the biggest thing to me.
Speaker 1: I look him and I looked in my heart and
Speaker 1: we're both rad of the row. So you mentioned Derek
Speaker 1: just did his job on that. How is that hard
Speaker 1: to do in a moment like that, to not get
Speaker 1: outside yourself and trying to do too much. Is that
Speaker 1: something you have to learn over time? Nope, with that's
Speaker 1: what we talk about, you know, doing your doing your job.
Speaker 1: That's our game. You know, that's how the nit they
Speaker 1: line room do your job. I don't try to nobody
Speaker 1: else's job because you know the play will come to
Speaker 1: you and obviously the play game to him. Um, he'd
Speaker 1: be at the corner and uh, you know he made
Speaker 1: to play that to see the game. Did you think
Speaker 1: who's gonna get up? You know he staggered for a
Speaker 1: bit there, looping in might no we we I saw
Speaker 1: Brandon coming around and uh, you know, once BG gout,
Speaker 1: he started stumbling. Brandon BG come around and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: to make sure he was down, and you know it was.
Speaker 1: It was great for us. It's really got a lot
Speaker 1: of pressure on induw luck tonight and really held them
Speaker 1: in the red zone. They were one of five. I
Speaker 1: believe it was in the red zone what allowed you
Speaker 1: guys to be so successful upfront. I mean we just
Speaker 1: always talk about you know, being being there, being a
Speaker 1: really good red zone team, being a good, really good
Speaker 1: overall defense, especially in the red zone. You know, you
Speaker 1: want the whole team to three points. Don't let him
Speaker 1: score touchdowns or you know, get turnovers, and uh, I
Speaker 1: think this, I think we really did that today. There
Speaker 1: were some costly turnovers by the offense deep in your
Speaker 1: own territory there, and yet you guys were able to
Speaker 1: hold hold the Colts to just three points on both
Speaker 1: of those possessions. Does that fire you up when you see, okay,
Speaker 1: now we got to go back out there and this
Speaker 1: is now our time to clean up erase this mistake.
Speaker 1: For lack of a better term, yeah, I think you
Speaker 1: know how big a deal is. We saw the ball.
Speaker 1: You know, we had we had our backs against the wall,
Speaker 1: and we've we've seen that story before, had our backs
Speaker 1: against the wall, and you gotta come out of holding
Speaker 1: three points to give our offense another chance. Would you
Speaker 1: be wearing this jacket tonight if you didn't have such
Speaker 1: a good game? Where does jacket no matter what? For
Speaker 1: the war to the game, three sacks and three games
Speaker 1: for you on your way to the Defensive Player of
Speaker 1: the Year. Perhaps, man, just just keep working hard. That's
Speaker 1: all I can do. I don't control those things, and
Speaker 1: all I can do is just go out and show
Speaker 1: the wheld while you know, I want of the best
Speaker 1: defensive players in the year. Is that something that's important
Speaker 1: to you. It's very important, you know, And uh, it's
Speaker 1: very important to me. And but you know, at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's not about me. It's about
Speaker 1: you know, the other ten guys. It's on the field.
Speaker 1: The other guys is in this locker room, which is
Speaker 1: and that's what makes it so special.
