1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Tom was just in here. He was talking about how

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 1: he was probably as emotional as he's been in a

3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: long time. What did you notice from his emotion after

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: the game? I think we're all pretty emotional. Us coming

5
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,159
Speaker 1: to a rough environment where try mostly everybody didn't think

6
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,479
Speaker 1: we're gonna run this football game. So we took it

7
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: as a challenge, and you knew it was gonna be

8
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: a tough, full quarter of football game. It's a good

9
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: football team that we beat, and it took everything we got. James,

10
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,479
Speaker 1: how much have you got to set the tone on

11
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: that first drive and plays in yards? You know five?

12
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: How much you start to set the tone for this game.

13
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: We definitely said it to a little bit. And playing

14
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: against the offense like that, who can score anytime, it's

15
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: good for us to go out and score on our

16
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: first drive. Obviously we didn't kind of keep our foot

17
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: on the gas like in the third and second quarter,

18
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: but we just found a way to win the football game.

19
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: You guys dominated time and possession, doubled them up and

20
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,919
Speaker 1: plays ninety something plays that part of the game plan.

21
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 1: Just want to help your defense. Oh well, we knew

22
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: we had to run the football. It wasn't just about

23
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: the time possession. Um, they're good pass defense. They have

24
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: a good pass rusher, so you just can't drive back

25
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: in through the ball six of time. So we had

26
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: a ball effective James, We've talked about it all week

27
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: and said, what said, But how important wasn't the start fast?

28
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: And we had a four team up in the the league

29
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: going into half the time? Oh, it's important to start fast,

30
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: but we knew no lead is unreachable from these guys.

31
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: They can score in two three plays each drive, so

32
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: we knew we had to score more points. And I said,

33
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: they fought back to the league. It's a crazy football game.

34
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: He's happy to come out with a winy offensive line,

35
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: flat the way you guys really rid it out some

36
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: of those first downs. I mean, they've been huge for

37
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: us all year long. I don't think they really get

38
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: the credit that they deserve in the running game, the

39
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: passing game. I mean they've been opening up a huge

40
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: holes for us and giving time plenty of time to

41
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: throw a football. And they do a great job every week.

42
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: Relish being kind of the smash Molly game with the

43
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: two tight ends in the full back. Yeah, I mean

44
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: each week could be different. I mean we can smash

45
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: mouth one week and air it out another week. You

46
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: just do whatever it takes a game you can get wins, James,

47
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: Julian Ellen was a huge factor down the stretch. What

48
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: does it say about the guy to have the stretch

49
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: where he had the near the fun and then the

50
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: ball walker stance with the pick and then come back

51
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: and be intrumental out of the the scratch. I mean, he's

52
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: a laser focus no matter what's going on. And it

53
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: was a close call, but he knew he didn't touch it,

54
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: so I mean he just wanted to go out there

55
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: and make plays and do whatever it could to help

56
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: our team. He wins. He made some huge catches on

57
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: third down down to stretch him grown. Everybody did a

58
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: great job extually doing the last drive. James, You've been

59
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: in the league up five years and this would be

60
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: the fourth trip to the super Bowl. Is it surreal

61
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: you kind of continue with success. Yeah, it's definitely surreal,

62
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: but definitely don't take the opportunity for granted. It's definitely

63
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: not easy to make it to this point playoffs period.

64
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: So we put a lot of hard work in OTA's

65
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: training camp regular season just to get the games like

66
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: this so you want to go out there and try

67
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: to play your best football, no matter whether it's your

68
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: first time or fifth time, tenth time, whatever it is. Yeah,

69
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: we see him time before the game and just that

70
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: he that he saw a look. You know, I'm curious,

71
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: what are you your thoughts Tom, Tom, and just waiting

72
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: run about it today. Well he just laser focus. Like

73
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: I said, we all accepted as a challenger. Dude, it's

74
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 1: gonna be tough, New, Its gonna be a fourth quarter

75
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: football game, New, It's gonna be loud, it's gonna take

76
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: our best effort if we want to win. This football

77
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: game is you know, kind of up and down game

78
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: and everything that we expected. And everybody stayed locked in

79
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 1: four men changes in the fourth four of holders headline.

80
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: Last question you guys emotionally, Um, I mean it's not

81
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: really emotional, just football. It's gonna be ups and downs,

82
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: gonna be winning sometimes, gonna be losing at some point

83
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: in the game. So you just gotta find a way

84
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: to grind it out. Ja Julie didn't want his best
