Speaker 1: I could seem like really kind of led the way
Speaker 1: tonight as far as the intensity, How would you value
Speaker 1: got digged early on? How would you evaluate your game tonight? Yeah,
Speaker 1: my goal was just to come out play as hard
Speaker 1: as I could. It was a little weird last week
Speaker 1: for the first time in my career playing a game
Speaker 1: that doesn't necessarily mean anything in terms of playoff contention.
Speaker 1: And I kind of had to check myself and and
Speaker 1: this week come in with a mindset of every game matters,
Speaker 1: and and we need to put the best product out
Speaker 1: there that we can and and that's what I tried
Speaker 1: to do. Later announced it was a cushion or you
Speaker 1: looked at they were looking into you pork cushion, but
Speaker 1: you returned. You did seem taken up right after. You
Speaker 1: kind of just talked about what happened. Yes, Sam just
Speaker 1: tried to get in on it and uh caught me.
Speaker 1: It was more of like a stinger type thing. But
Speaker 1: the ref wanted me to go to the tent, so
Speaker 1: I had to go answer some questions. It was like
Speaker 1: jammed yeah, and neck your helmet. I know that you've
Speaker 1: got a sort of a different helmet helped you. And yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe when it hits the top like that, it's not
Speaker 1: as good. But I like these guys eleven months ago
Speaker 1: kind of crushed their dreams. Do you get the sense
Speaker 1: they're kind of a different team or and also that
Speaker 1: they this was a very important game for them to win.
Speaker 1: I don't think they're that different. I think they've had
Speaker 1: a ton of injuries on defense, which hurts them. But
Speaker 1: the mentality of the head coach, you could see it
Speaker 1: throughout everybody. It's really a cool team. I could just
Speaker 1: see from Afar that it's probably a fun team to
Speaker 1: play for. And they they come out and they play
Speaker 1: to win every game, and I respect that. I've put
Speaker 1: so much emphasis on the ball, all meetings and takeaways,
Speaker 1: and I think you got twos supply week. Is there
Speaker 1: any accounting for that? I mean, is there's so many
Speaker 1: different things that go into eternal and take away. It
Speaker 1: goes into every level of the defense. When you have
Speaker 1: your opportunity. I know we had two against Stafford that
Speaker 1: could have made I mean if maybe if we get those,
Speaker 1: it sparks a bunch of other ones. So you just
Speaker 1: have to make your make your plays when they're there,
Speaker 1: and then just being be in the right spots and
Speaker 1: I don't think we've done a great job of that
Speaker 1: this year. All bro, did you want that matchup? Would you?
Speaker 1: Would you think about that matchup? It's good. He's a
Speaker 1: really good player, and yeah, I wanted to see where
Speaker 1: I'm at against him. Have you ever seen anything like
Speaker 1: the Jamison Williams touchdown or just pop back to him
Speaker 1: and you've seen something like that. I was in the tent,
Speaker 1: so I had no idea that happened. There was a
Speaker 1: play in this game. I'm kind of a misdirection sprinted
Speaker 1: all the way across the field to make the play.
Speaker 1: Did you see the play? And do you think it was? It?
Speaker 1: The one Gibbs cut back. Yeah, I had like a
Speaker 1: ten yard cushion and he ran by me like I
Speaker 1: was didn't exist, and I tried to sprint and I
Speaker 1: was just like I don't have this, and thankfully Mustafa
Speaker 1: is a heat seeking missile and when he made the play.
Speaker 1: So mindset was what was your mindset against Miami? I
Speaker 1: mean indicated, I mean I think we came in with
Speaker 1: the right mindset as a team. Just myself, it felt
Speaker 1: a little like dead energy wise, but yeah, it was
Speaker 1: a learning a moment for me to look and make
Speaker 1: sure that I come in with the right mindset every
Speaker 1: single week. It seems like there's there's a lot of
Speaker 1: plays where you guys get to the pills, pass breakups,
Speaker 1: and it'll be like a couple of plays in a
Speaker 1: row and then there was an explosive allowed. What can
Speaker 1: you put your far on about the Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: we did. We did get them to second third lungs
Speaker 1: and then yeah, they would make a big play and
Speaker 1: you definitely want to capitalize when you when you back
Speaker 1: them up like that, and we didn't do that tonight.
Speaker 1: And that's why they scored forty points. I'm sure, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure.
