That's what I believe. But um, with 16 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: you know, our injury situation and things like that, I 17 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: just want to be sure we're doing players safety first 18 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: and as a team returns to in power field at 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: mile High and just three show days, coachak had also 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: talked about how big this rivalry between the Broncos and 21 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders is. I mean, this has been one of 22 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: the best rivalries in football forever, I think sixty years. 23 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I know how much it means, the fans, 24 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,839 Speaker 1: the players in that room, and I mean it's Raiders 25 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: we I mean, I mean, so for us, it's it's 26 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of motivation, you know, we want 27 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: to get a win, but um, it's even something more 28 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,559 Speaker 1: inspiring when you're playing the Raiders because of how great 29 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: this rivalry is. And uh, you know, for me just 30 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: looking back at all those those days watching those Broncos, 31 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,199 Speaker 1: I mean those were the ones that were on Monday 32 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 1: Night football, the ones that you wanted to watch, you know, 33 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: the the uh I want to say, the TIFFs that 34 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: might have happened during the game, and the things that 35 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: continually progressed. But uh, I mean, it's it's great for 36 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: our game to have these kind of rivalries. It's great 37 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: to see that doesn't matter what your record is, it's 38 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: going to be a great game.

Yeah, Um, you know, I think 43 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: it's the same story that we're living through right now. Um, 44 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: but when you look at their offense, they've still got 45 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: the best receiver in the NFL, they've got a great 46 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: running back, they've got a really good quarterback, and so 47 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: they've got weapons and uh, they're gonna be a great challenge. 48 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: And as the Broncos continue to prepare for this a 49 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: f C West matchup, offensive coordinator Justin out In detailed 50 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: how the staff communicates during the game and how it's 51 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: a collaborative effort. You know, you get your your set, 52 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: your next drive ready in uh situations that you see 53 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: in the previous drive. Um, obviously you walk in with 54 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: your openers and um typically they're based off of what 55 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: you see throughout the week, but throughout the whole game, 56 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: there's a lot of collaboration, not only with me, but 57 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: with Clint um just getting these information, the information up 58 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: top as far as the coverages and the fronts and 59 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: the pressures that we're seeing and just giving him the 60 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: best opportunities, uh to call the best play. Um. So 61 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot of collaboration. There's not a lot of 62 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: kick back. Um, I think he does a really good 63 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: job as far as just taken in all the ideas 64 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: and kind of uh you know, ordering them and his 65 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: like likeness. But he Um, I think he does a 66 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: great job as far as just listening and then uh, 67 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: you know calling it. Plus, Coach Barrow details cornerback pats 68 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: Or Tan's performance this season and what makes him so good. Now. 69 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: Pat has a lot of great physical traits, um, but 70 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: I would say, uh, probably one of the best things 71 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: he does that really separates him from a lot of 72 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: corners is that he has this ability to stay locked 73 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: and snapping and snap out and um, you know, it's 74 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: a credit to him that he's not getting targeted not 75 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: only that game, but throughout the whole year. People are 76 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: staying away from him because they know what he can do. Um, 77 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: but still being able to focus in and stay locked 78 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: in and stay tapped in regardless of how many targets 79 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: he gets and how many opportunities he gets. It's it's 80 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: not easy to do and it's a testament to him 81 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: and cornerback pats Or Tan is looking forward to facing 82 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: raiders a wide receiver Davante Adams for the second time 83 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: this season. I'm looking forward to it. Um. Obviously from 84 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: when I look at the first game, there's something's correct 85 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: um going against him. Um, you know, just some minor injustments, 86 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: but you know, I'm looking forward to obviously he's a 87 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: great player and you know, so it's gonna be a matchup, 88 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a show down. And as we wrap 89 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: up the top news of the day, let's take a 90 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: look at today's injury report.

We're all limited at practice, and after practice 97 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: today we heard from offensive lineman Tom Compton, who detailed 98 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: his back injury this offseason and what his status might 99 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: be this weekend. Yeah, so kind of my timeline in 100 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: the spring. Durn otis minicamp Um. I had a hernia disc. 101 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: We tried to fight it out, get injections, um wasn't 102 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: really working, so surgery was kind of my only option there. 103 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: I had the surgery in July and ever since then 104 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: just kind of working my way back, doing the proper steps. Um. 105 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: You know, it's definitely been a tough deal. I've never 106 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: had a significant injury like that. It's always been minor 107 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: week here and there type of stuff. So it's a 108 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: new kind of new territory for me. Um. There is 109 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: definitely a chance I'll play this week. We don't know 110 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: yet what role that will be. Could be starting, could 111 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: be backing up, could be emergency backup, could not dress 112 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: at all, depending on other guys. So it's still pretty 113 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: up in there right now. And I had a chance 114 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: to catch up with Raiders dot COM's Rachel Gossin to 115 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: get her thoughts on this matchup from the Raider's perspective. 116 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: Take a listen, Rachel, appreciate you joining me today.

It's nice and sunny outside, getting 119 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: a little cold, so we're ready ready for Sunday. That's wonderful. 120 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: I'm glad it's sunny over there as it is not 121 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: sending over here. We got a lot of snow today, 122 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: but luckily it'll warm up before Sunday comes around. That 123 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: thankfully we won't have a snow game for sure. Well, Rachel, 124 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: I know the Raiders stood at two and seven. We've 125 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: seen the past week just so much passion from you know, 126 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: Derek car Davante Adams, just their commitment to the team 127 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: and the culture there. You know, what have they been 128 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: saying this week in terms of that? Yeah, I mean 129 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: I think Sunday we really saw that raw emotion and 130 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's okay to be frustrated like these 131 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: get No one likes to lose, but no one hates 132 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: losing more than the guys that are out there on 133 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: the field. You know, like they're the ones putting themselves 134 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: out there. This is it means so much to them. 135 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: And you know, Davantae Adams this week he said, yes, 136 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: there's frustrations and you know, talking in the locker room 137 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: and expressing those is good for the team. But it's 138 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: also you can't sit here and wallow. You can't show 139 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: up to work every day with a frown on your 140 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: face because it's just not healthy and it's also not 141 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: how you want to have your mind going into your 142 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: next game, where you're like, okay, let's you know, rebound, 143 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: turn the page, try to get a win this week, 144 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: because you have to take it week by week. You know, 145 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: this this season is a marathon, it's not a sprint. 146 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 1: So I know that's very cliche, but you have to 147 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: take it week by week and you know, like prepare 148 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: for your next opponent. You can't think about everything that 149 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: went wrong last week. So you know, it's a new time, 150 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: and I think they're ready, you know, really focusing on 151 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: this week and not letting it those frowns and that upsetting, 152 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: frustrating feeling it to them too much. Absolutely. I know, 153 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: looking back at the Broncos Raiders first match of the 154 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: season back in Week four, Um, you guys put up 155 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: a good performance against US. I know it was your 156 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: first win of the season. So what did you really 157 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: like about the Raiders performance in that game that you 158 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: want to see them really improve upon and bring this 159 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: Sunday here in the Mile High City. You know, it 160 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: feels like we were just it was just week four 161 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: and we just saw you guys, and we're already at 162 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: week thirteen. It's crazy, um so fast, it does, it does, 163 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: But I do remember, you know, for Josh Jacobs, we 164 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: really he really saw him unleashed, and that game, I 165 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: think he put up over a hundred forty yards and 166 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: it started three consecutive games where he ran more than 167 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: hundred forty which was just incredible to watch and just 168 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: watch him really get after it and show off his talents. 169 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: And I'd love to see that again. But you know, 170 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: we also have to take into account this Broncos defense 171 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: that is one of the top in the league. And 172 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: you know, even with you've lost, it doesn't look the 173 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: same as it did in week four, and we don't 174 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: look the same as we did in week four, So 175 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: it is kind of like it's not really a rematch, 176 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: but it's you know, there's new new people, some people 177 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: that have been lost to injuries because it's that time 178 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: of year. So it'll be interesting to see what exactly happens. 179 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: For sure, you know, Josh Jacobs, he always plays so 180 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: well against the Broncos, which is so annoying on our end. 181 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: But you know, this this Broncos defense, they're coming off 182 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: a really good game in which they held Derrick Henry 183 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: to just fifty three rushing yards. So you think Josh 184 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: Jacob is gonna be able to put up those numbers 185 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: again or might be a little bit more difficult this weekend. 186 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: I mean, we'll see what the game plan is. Josh 187 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: McDaniels noted in his press conference this week that, you know, 188 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: like we had just talked about that this isn't really 189 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: the same team, so they are viewing it as a 190 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: new team. You can just run the same game plan 191 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: because it worked last time, and so it's it's all about, 192 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: you know, like, I don't know if Josh is going 193 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: to run this week. Could be fantastic. We did, but 194 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: we might see an opening up with maybe one of 195 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: these next man up receivers. You know we had Hunter 196 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: run frogone I R. So now we're really counting on 197 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: mac Hollins, Keel and Cole DJ Turner, any of those guys. 198 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: Maybe this is their breakout game. Who knows what could happen. 199 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: I know both teams, they've been in some really really 200 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: close games the season, Rachel. I know, for the Raiders, 201 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: what is kind of the coaching staff really been saying 202 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: in terms of what the key is to kind of 203 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: finishing these games. It's really hard, but I think it 204 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: all goes back to those fundamentals. And I know that 205 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: you guys, you've also lost these one possession games multiple 206 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: like we have this year, and it's really heartbreaking to 207 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: watch because, like they all say, you're right there and 208 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: you know you can do it, and if you just 209 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: flip the script, it's like if any of those were wins, 210 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: it's a whole different conversation right now. So I think 211 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: it's really just finishing out. Playing the full game is 212 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: what the main focus has been for the past few weeks. 213 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: So hopefully, you know, both of these teams can do 214 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: that and we'll see a really great game from both 215 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: of them. For sure. You kind of touched on this 216 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: a little bit earlier, Rachel, but would have kind of 217 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: some of the guy has been saying in the locker 218 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: room this week in terms of this rematch vers to 219 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: Broncos Um, I think they're very excited for I mean, 220 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: anytime you play an a f c S team, you know, 221 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: it's exciting because it's your division, and those games always 222 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: seems there's always something weird. I feel like that happens 223 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: in any of our division games. Yes, so you never know, 224 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: but I think they're just excited to get back out 225 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: there and kind of like shake off what's been happening 226 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: in these past few weeks and kind of set a 227 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: new you know, get back in the win column for sure. 228 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: Rich All, who's one guy maybe on the Raiders. He 229 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: is kind of flying under the radar that you think 230 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: might be, you know, a big contributor this week and 231 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: who will really step up for this team. I mean 232 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: we kind of saw him in Week four against you guys. 233 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: But and Meek Robertson has been having a fantastic season. 234 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: He's just really making a name himself and getting out there. 235 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: Like you know, I think he he said before, like 236 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: people kind of discount him because of his height, like 237 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: he's on the smaller side, and maybe he can't hang, 238 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: maybe he can't do as much, but he has this 239 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: like this confidence in this passion that you really see 240 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 1: like when he's on the field, like he loves the 241 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: game of football. He is so passionate for this game 242 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: and he'll do anything to win. And it was really 243 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: exciting week for to watch him. I believe it was 244 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: the fumble return and I you know, I hope he 245 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: gets another one this week. That'd be a great story. 246 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: Definitely would be uh, well, last one here for you, Rachel. 247 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: What do you think a win this weekend for the 248 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: Raiders would really mean for you know, the team and 249 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: just the moral of the team really, I mean, everyone 250 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: loves to win. That's not you know, that's not going 251 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: to change anything. But I think they would still be 252 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: focused in like, you get one win, but that doesn't 253 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: change next week. That doesn't mean you're gonna win next week, 254 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: you know. And you also can't discount anyone this league, 255 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: in this league because of their record. Um you know, 256 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: like like we said, these close games, it's anyone could 257 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: have won those, and so a win is a win 258 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: and it's great to celebrate it that Sunday. Maybe a 259 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: little bit on Monday when you're watching tape, but then 260 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: you have to move on because it's a new game, 261 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: new chapter.
