Speaker 1: Was there any special stuffing coming back to this.
Speaker 2: Place where you had the injury last year?
Speaker 1: I mean it was sort of in my mind. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I got hurt here. You know, that was this year
Speaker 1: late in January. But was it gonna be the revenge
Speaker 1: game or anything like that. No, for me, it was
Speaker 1: week thirteen. Uh, we're going into a to a whole
Speaker 1: it's a new year, hostile environment. We needed this game.
Speaker 1: We need this game, and obviously we have some really
Speaker 1: important games coming up too. So that's where I was
Speaker 1: at with that. I didn't want to get distracted by
Speaker 1: I gotta go back and show everybody what could have
Speaker 1: happened or what could have been got a new team
Speaker 1: this twentes and twenty three, and that's where my min
Speaker 1: my mind was at.
Speaker 2: How special is this performance? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean outside those first two drives, it's like that's,
Speaker 1: you know, the Niner football that we know. That's the
Speaker 1: offense that we know when everyone's doing their part, everything's clicking.
Speaker 1: Obviously some great play calls, and then you know everyone
Speaker 1: just makes place and does it the right way.
Speaker 2: We protect the ball, defense does their job.
Speaker 1: That that that felt good and that's what we're always
Speaker 1: trying to obviously do and and be at. That's the
Speaker 1: standard that we know, and that's what the standard that
Speaker 1: we set over the years, and and so yeah, that's
Speaker 1: what we expect out of ourselves.
Speaker 2: Physical things like that this week.
Speaker 1: Something more behind him this weekend. And what did you think? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, going into the week, obviously you
Speaker 1: know Deevo had a little something to him just that's
Speaker 1: just who he is and he can do that. He's
Speaker 1: good enough to do that. And but was it a
Speaker 1: distraction or anything like that. No, Deebos practiced hard all
Speaker 1: week every single week he's done that and he's been
Speaker 1: very consistent this year and so but going into this game, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean he had a little something, little history with
Speaker 1: obviously the way things went down last year in the
Speaker 1: playoff game, and he's definitely looked forward to this game,
Speaker 1: coming back into this place. So he was pumped about
Speaker 1: it and stoked and ready to go. And man, all
Speaker 1: I had to do was get him the ball in
Speaker 1: some space and he made the rest happen.
Speaker 2: So really happy for him.
Speaker 1: You had you had a Deevil like run early in
Speaker 1: the second quarter cornerback off.
Speaker 2: Were you trying to knock and down where you're.
Speaker 1: Just trying to what was going. Yeah, I was just
Speaker 1: trying to, you know, extend the play and everything. I
Speaker 1: felt like I could shake him, you know, once he
Speaker 1: tried wrapping up, so I broke that tackle and then
Speaker 1: after that, I guess I laid my shoulder down and
Speaker 1: I think it was a blanket ship. Yeah, but it
Speaker 1: was just a scramble. It wasn't anything like I'm gonna
Speaker 1: pull the debo here. So back to that first touchdown,
Speaker 1: was it to get some.
Speaker 2: Points on George?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that was something you know, we've been
Speaker 1: harping on as an offense, like we want to be
Speaker 1: better on third down. Obviously we've had some explosive plays
Speaker 1: on first and second down, but when it comes down
Speaker 1: to it and third down, we need it.
Speaker 2: We need to be better.
Speaker 1: And so, uh, this game to come out and and
Speaker 1: uh be efficient on third down was huge for us.
Speaker 1: Set up obviously all of our drives to continue to
Speaker 1: go down and score, and yeah, those third downs were huge.
Speaker 1: So I'm very proud of our guys. Everyone was where
Speaker 1: they needed to be. The oh line did a great
Speaker 1: job of handling everything with their front. They had a
Speaker 1: really good front. So we all felt good about it.
Speaker 2: The third downs. Yeah, first two possessions. No, no one
Speaker 2: was freaking out or anything.
Speaker 1: It was more like, man, we just got to get
Speaker 1: the ball roll and we need a positive play, and
Speaker 1: we need an envision and see a positive play and
Speaker 1: have some momentum be you know created off that. So
Speaker 1: and especially for myself as a quarterback, I just needed
Speaker 1: to see myself completing a ball, you know, get a completion,
Speaker 1: get things rolling. And we did that, and so Kyle
Speaker 1: called some some plays to allow us to get the
Speaker 1: ball out of my hands pretty quick, just to get
Speaker 1: into a rhythm. And once we did that, we rolled
Speaker 1: from there and we didn't look back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was huge. Defense was doing their thing.
Speaker 1: You know, going into the game, we thought they did
Speaker 1: really well last year in that game, and then obviously
Speaker 1: quarterback situation happened, and then you know, the momentum was
Speaker 1: given to the to the Eagles, and so for this game,
Speaker 1: you know, the defense is like, now we're gonna show them,
Speaker 1: you know, what we've done all year, what we started
Speaker 1: to do last year in the beginning of the game,
Speaker 1: and so for them to come out and get those
Speaker 1: stops holding the field goals, it was up to us
Speaker 1: on offense, like, man, let's let's get their back, you know,
Speaker 1: let's get things rolling. Uh, get a point, get some
Speaker 1: points on the board or touchdown. And that's what we did.
Speaker 1: So it was complimentary football and we needed it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not getting caught up in it. It
Speaker 1: was literally every drive, you know, we gotta continue to
Speaker 1: put up points. We gotta score, we gotta score. That's
Speaker 1: just our mindset. That's where we were at. Guys made
Speaker 1: plays Kyle called a great game. Defense got stops, and
Speaker 1: that's our mindset. It was like, man, anybody can score
Speaker 1: a touchdown at any point with our offense and the
Speaker 1: guys that we have on offense.
Speaker 2: And so.
Speaker 1: Was that going, all right, that's four in a row,
Speaker 1: that's five and row. That I wasn't thinking like that.
Speaker 1: It was where we're at, where are we at situationally
Speaker 1: in the game, and we just wanted to keep the
Speaker 1: foot on the gas pedal and try to keep pulling
Speaker 1: away as best as possible.
Speaker 2: That has a history of let's yeah.
Speaker 1: No, I'm very proud of our guys man to be
Speaker 1: able to get up like that with two scores and
Speaker 1: then you know, Philly comes back, they get the momentum.
Speaker 1: Dre you know, gets ejected, they score, and then for
Speaker 1: us to continue to go on a on a run
Speaker 1: and multiple runs, to continue to score and you know,
Speaker 1: have that lead continue to grow. That was huge for us,
Speaker 1: you know, especially on the road in this kind of
Speaker 1: environment with that team, with Jalen Hurts and their great offense,
Speaker 1: it was huge for us to be able to to
Speaker 1: get our momentum continue to roll.
Speaker 2: So that was huge for us. I think that was
Speaker 2: a big step forward as an offense.
Speaker 1: You u didn't have flash uhl or anything, but when
Speaker 1: you saw coming down and no, like I said before,
Speaker 1: I mean that was a football play. It happened. He
Speaker 1: was trying to get the ball, you know. Last game,
Speaker 1: that's just how how it all happened. And so you know,
Speaker 1: going into this game, they have so many other good players.
Speaker 1: You know, we weren't just a sound reddick. You know,
Speaker 1: we gotta be careful. Yes, obviously we honored and respected
Speaker 1: respected him and what he's done, but you know, was
Speaker 1: that so concerned about him in the game. No, it
Speaker 1: was what the whole defense is doing as a whole.
Speaker 1: So he's a great player, and that's that's where.
Speaker 2: We were out with at I did not know.
Speaker 1: Specific honestly. I mean Deebo's debo. Man, he's fun to
Speaker 1: be around. He's electric at you know, within meetings and
Speaker 1: then obviously out in the practice field, in the.
Speaker 2: Locker room and stuff.
Speaker 1: Maybe he was saying some stuff that was fun for
Speaker 1: all of us to hear in a sense like Devo
Speaker 1: is just having fun with it, you know.
Speaker 2: But was it anything out of the ordinary. I don't
Speaker 2: think so.
Speaker 1: I mean Deebo's debot. He's fun to be around, man,
Speaker 1: So he was. We all knew he was ready for
Speaker 1: this game. He's been waiting for it for a long time.
Speaker 1: And yeah, that was that. So his play did the rest.
Speaker 2: Thanks guys,
