Obviously 9 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,760 Speaker 1: it wasn't pretty. Had a couple of bonehead plays out 10 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: there myself, so you gotta make the corrections. Trying to 11 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: start faster, and it's good to see that everybody keeps 12 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: competing no matter where the situation. Thanks for what eleven read, 13 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 1: followed by Mark Dannis. Hey James, and know it's been 14 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: a while, but how didn't feel the guy will getting 15 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: to the end zone and kind of, you know, raise 16 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: your hand to this guy and say, yeah, so I'm back, 17 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: whib along. Yeah, it's been a while for sure. Didn't 18 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: feel good to get in there try and make some 19 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: place for my team. Obviously we didn't. It wasn't a 20 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: high scoring games. Anytime you can score these type of games, 21 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: it's very important, just real quick when you talk about 22 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: you're going up against a team that's the number one 23 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: ranked offense in the NFL. You watch your defense give 24 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: you the ballbacks so many times. How much is it 25 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,040 Speaker 1: on you, guys just to say, you know what, we've 26 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: got to do as much as we can to sustain 27 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: these drives. It was a huge A defense played great today. 28 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: That's an explosive offense that they had there. On the 29 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: other side, they did a great job. I mean the 30 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: first set of points that they've got, I mean that 31 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: was on me. I messed up the Blitz pick up 32 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: and gave him a short field. The defense played great, 33 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: you know, all night long. And for us as the offense, 34 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna try to string drives together. They have a 35 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: good defense. I think we made enough players win the 36 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: football game. That was most important. Next up Jan Roach, 37 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: followed by Mark Danions Hi James just to kind of 38 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: follow up with Levin said, for you personally, how good 39 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: did it feel to get into the end zone a 40 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: couple of times? It's been a tough season obviously, as 41 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: we know for you, but to get in and then 42 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: also habit to be part of a victory, I know 43 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: how important that is to you as well. It was. 44 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: It was awesome, man, I said, a little scoring game. 45 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: Anytime you can score points, it's very important. Felt good 46 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: to score, celebrated with my teammates and to be able 47 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: to score again. That was pretty cool. But it's happy 48 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: we came out with the win. Said as a hard fall. 49 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: Game wasn't perfect. I mean their defense through some different things. 50 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: That is what guys trying to, you know, be on 51 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: the same page, communicated out and just find ways win 52 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: the football game. Kim made a huge play at the 53 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: end of that game that you know, kind of got 54 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: us in the field goal position, so it was it 55 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: was huge. And next up Mark Daniels, Than Andrew Callaham 56 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: and Jams. What was the feeling like after that Newton 57 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: run in the hit that was obviously a big sort 58 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: of momentum switch, which is what was like being on 59 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: the field without play. I mean, it was a huge play. 60 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: They said they were blitzing the house on that one, 61 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: and it's kind of a perfect call right there, and 62 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: he got enough yards and a penny gave us even 63 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: more yards. So it's a huge playing the game, he said, 64 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: he gave us a boost to win it, you know, 65 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: so you guys have been in this position. It seems 66 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: like a lot this year, you've had these moments to 67 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: tire go ahead late in the fourth. Just what was 68 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: the feeling like when you guys came on the field 69 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: following the missfield goal. I just gotta findal winning with 70 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,399 Speaker 1: the football game, getting field goal range, give him Nick 71 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to make the kick. He's done making the big 72 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: kicks for us all year long. So for us, just 73 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 1: getting in the field goal position, man enough places to 74 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 1: do it. And Andrew Calahan and Chris Ryan and James, 75 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: I know you always talked to us about you know, 76 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: every team, game player is different, right, So given you 77 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: know what we talked about, this season has been so 78 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: hard for very different reasons. What was just your prevailing 79 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: feeling like? Obviously winning is good, but specific to this game, 80 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: what was unique about stepping off that field being like 81 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: we wanted despite all that. Yeah, it was a horror 82 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: fall game. Like I said, it wasn't perfectly on offense, 83 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: wasn't perfect on offense. The defense came up with some 84 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: huge stops, turnovers, special teams had some huge returns for 85 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: us that gave us good field positions. So we played 86 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: that complimentary football at the right times, and I said, 87 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't pretty, but we're able to fight and compete 88 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: for four quarters and it's all you can ask for. Andy, 89 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: knowing obviously you can't do anything on the sidelines when 90 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: they're backed up there at the end of the first half, 91 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: but that goal line stand, wish you could have to 92 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: tell you what do you do to kind of pass 93 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: the time? Like, are you guys who can't look? Are 94 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: you standing up watching? Are you watching the scoreboard? Standing 95 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: up watching? For Sures made that huge stop. It was 96 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: very important they got the ball back at halftime, so 97 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: I stopped was everything for us, Thanks James bro Chris Ryan. 98 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: Then Levin read, hey, James, congrats on the victory. You 99 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: want to ask you about the fourth and two touchdown, 100 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: which I thought was a pivotal play in the game 101 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: as well, given you know the nature what you guys 102 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: were able to do there and special teams. You mentioned 103 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: that the moncrief return. How much did you guys need 104 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: that field position in order to give you, um, you know, 105 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,559 Speaker 1: the shots you needed in this game? It was huge. 106 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: I said all year we haven't had too much in 107 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: the return game, and we've been talking about we need 108 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: to get some plays from the return game, get better 109 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: block and get better return and all that stuff, and 110 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: everybody took it to heart, went out there and execute 111 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: it and hopefully we'll keep it going. Mon Creeve had 112 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: a huge return. It's a good field position, you know, 113 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: Gunner had the return for a touchdown and then ref 114 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: called the you know whatever block and stuff with that. 115 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: But put us in field goal position or good field 116 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: position as well. So it's always a bonus, you know, 117 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: having good returns and you know, kind of starting on 118 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: the other side of the fifties, it's definitely huge for 119 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: the offense. And how about the play call on your 120 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: second touchdown and tossed to the outside, get to the 121 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: pile on It seemed like the perfect play call for 122 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: that for that time. It was the perfect play call. 123 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: I was aligned to the great job blocking receivers, Damien 124 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: and it was just great execution, and I tried to 125 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: be the guy to the problem line. Thanks James, congrats, 126 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: I'm thank you, and we'll go Levin read than Joe Kota. 127 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: James just too quick. Question on the play where Cam 128 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: is running that first down he gets knocked out about elite, 129 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: How important was it the emotion of the team to 130 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: come to Kim's e to make sure that he's not 131 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: getting punched around out there. Very important. Everyone will let 132 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: you know, guys take cheap shots on your quarterback. And 133 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: at the same time, you gotta be composed because you know, 134 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: we don't want to get a flag in that situation 135 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: as well, and you know, move us backwards. So everybody 136 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: had a great job protected him and without getting a 137 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: flag because that'd have been a huge mistake. And then 138 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: you're a guy on special teams, what's it like seeing 139 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: Nick fucker out there and the confidence you guys have 140 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 1: fifty yards is that's not a small shot, that's a 141 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: that's a big shot, and he makes you he kicks 142 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: it through. It's not an easy kick. Like I said, 143 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: He's been making huge kicks for us all all year long. 144 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: Having stream confidence in him, and all we have to 145 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: do is just getting field goal position and you know, 146 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: give him the opportunity. A couple of last questions show 147 00:06:54,720 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: Kaota than Karen Green, Hey, James, how are you Jerry? Yeah, 148 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: just a couple of way With a close victory like that, 149 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: you guys have struggled this season closing out games. The 150 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: closed one out. How much confidence can I give this team? 151 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: I think you can give us some confidence. Um, I said, 152 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't perfect out there, but guys, far hard wasn't pretty. 153 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: Defense played a great game for us. Offensively. You may 154 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: not have the yards, but I think we made the 155 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: plays when we need them the most, and that's what 156 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: was most important. Getting Nick and feel a go arrange 157 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: at the end. Um, it's definitely gonna come out with 158 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: a win as a good football team. We played and 159 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully we can make the corrections from this one. 160 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: Get prepared for next week. And last questions here Karen Green, Hi, 161 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: James h Could Maybe you've been asked this, but I'll 162 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: ask it again because I jumped in a little late, 163 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: and I'll apologize the h The play that Cam made 164 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: at the end to gain the first down, the one 165 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: where you hit out of bounds after the type of 166 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: game he had to kind of still produce that kind 167 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: of play. What did it mean both for the team 168 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: and perhaps for him? I meant the lot of the team. 169 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure it was huge for him as well. Um, 170 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: Like I said, it's not always gonna be pretty out there. 171 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: None of us being perfect out there, let me including 172 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: myself like I as some terrible plays out there too, 173 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: So it was huge. He's got to make the plays 174 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: when they married the most in that situation right there. 175 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: We always talk about situational football being third and long 176 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: and be able to make that to make that run 177 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: and convert for us, what's probably the biggest playing the game. 178 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: How good was that play fake on that particular play 179 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 1: it was, It was really good. Yea, the saint he 180 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: was blessing he been on the play games
