• 0:02
  Speaker 1: you guys this week.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Uh, yeah, you know, I think it speaks for itself.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Number one, with the record, they're a really really good
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: football team. Uh you know, I feel like we're all
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: chasing the same thing at this points to you know,
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: go out and have success on this every single Sunday.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: So I think just across the front with their team,
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: they have a really really good online Uh obviously a
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: quarterback who's been doing it a long time, and then
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: two really really good running backs who can, uh you know,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: make the cuts and make the movements. And then the
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: skill room is you know, out of this world. But
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: you know, don't feel like there's a lot of challenges that
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: they present up front. But I think we're we're ready
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: and uh we're battle testing for this moment.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Over the course of the season, you guys have added
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: a little bit to the defensive line. You get Channa back.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Just how does that gap helped you guys this season
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: as long?
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It's huge. It's huge, you know, just having guys back
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: like China and then getting guys back, you know, fully
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: healthy and being able to go out and play the
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: best of their ability. And having a room full of
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: you know, eighteen guys who could start you know, across
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: the board, and uh, it also presents challenges, but y,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I mean that's that's a really really good room to
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: have and you know, the competition there. So we're going
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: out sharpening each other every single day to try to
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: you know, get those moments and you know, take advantage
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: of them on the field on Sundays.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: When when you look at Sunday's game, just obviously the
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: start was what you want to get a lot of
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: theirs or what on? What do you feel like I
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: guess was was the issues early that you got corrected later?
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think he's getting settled down, you know,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: not not not making the moment too big and getting
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: settled down. You know, we did some stuff up front
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: movement wise, you know, really have our clear screwed in
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: the ground. But I think once we got that settled
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: down and got the congressions in the second half, I
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: think we played a lot better ball.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Mike talked after the game about the idea of you know,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the loss was bad obviously, but everything's still in front
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: of you, still there, how, which is that sort of
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: motivating you guys even with the loss, you still control
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: what happens here.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's huge, just going through everything we've
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: been through this year, starting out hot and going cold
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: and then you know, striking iron again and you know,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: like I said, we've been battle tested, so we know
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: what it takes. You know, like I said, we have
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: a really good football team coming in here this weekend.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: And I mean, like you said, being able to still
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: control your own destiny at this point in the year,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: even with everything we went through, is really really big
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: for us. And I think the motivation is not even that,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: but just being able to go out and play again
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: on another time they having an opportunity to redeem yourself
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: on what happened last week.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: There you go.
