  Speaker 1: If you could walk through the interception and just your
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: feelings afterward.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: We got those plays in practice. The coach did a
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: great job scheming it up for us. So he called
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: the perfect call for us. We all talked and we
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: communicated on my side of the ball, and I just
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: made it happen.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: What are your emotions or anything like that after being
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: able to get an interception your first career?
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: It felt great, but I was on to the next play.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: That happened in the second quarter, so I had to
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: finish the game.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: Was there any sense of relief, though, finally getting that
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: first interception.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: You know, after so long? Yeah, a little bit.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Interceptions aren't great to catch, but I was focused on
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: winning the game and just continue to focus on the
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: next play.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: What was, I guess, the sense on the sideline early, too,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: when Drake May lost that fumble and you guys got
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: the ball going? Did that kind of sort of get
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: you guys going a little bit in terms of spark the.
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: Defense a little bit?
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Uh for me i know he he tried me a
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: couple times so i was just in there saying i'm
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: getting too close to the ball i gotta get me
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: one so you know we just continue to just do
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: what the coaches schemed up for us and we just
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: played our best ball.
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: Today travis you guys talked a lot this week about
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: just the response and how intentional you were in practice
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: and what does it say for you guys to put
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: forth that kind of performance after that mess we.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Practiced hard we made it hard on ourselves this week
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: we made sure we didn't have no mistakes. We continue
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: to just grind and just continue to go out there
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: and just show the practice squad that y'all can't get
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: anything on us. We're not going to let y'all do
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: anything because we had to be better this week.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Travis, you had the one.
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: Last week where you almost get it. And then to
• 1:42
  Speaker 6: get the one today, just kind of, do you take
• 1:45
  Speaker 6: a second to think about what those last 10 months
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: were for you and kind of your journey to be
• 1:51
  Speaker 6: on the field and, you know, even be able to
• 1:53
  Speaker 6: get that pick today?
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Nah, I ain't got no time to be reflecting on
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: my journey. Just got to continue to be focused, focused
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: on where my feet are and just go out there
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: and play. The coaches picked me out there for a reason,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: so I just got to go out there and just
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: do my job.
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: And then in training camp, you talked about how close
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: you and some of the other DBs have gotten. What
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: was it like to see Jari and get his today?
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: It was great.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I was on the sideline, so when I came, I
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: had to strap up my helmet and make sure I
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: didn't get no flag, but I had to go celebrate
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: with him.
• 2:19
  Speaker 7: I don't believe you're someone who keeps receipts, but you're
• 2:23
  Speaker 7: going back to Cincinnati where many thought it was a
• 2:26
  Speaker 7: bad call against you a year ago. How much will
• 2:29
  Speaker 7: that come up, if at all, going into play the Bengals?
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: I just got to go out there and do my job,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: put myself in the best position so I ain't got
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: to worry about the cost.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Going down at the one, what was your thought process
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: sort of there?
• 2:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I was, you know, the whole drive was kind
• 2:46
  Speaker 8: of like, Tried to put together a good drive, but
• 2:48
  Speaker 8: it was a four-minute thought, so we got down there.
• 2:52
  Speaker 8: And so when I, like, broke free and no one
• 2:53
  Speaker 8: tackled me, it was just... It's something we talk about
• 2:56
  Speaker 8: all the time, potentially, in those situations, like going down,
• 2:58
  Speaker 8: keeping the clock running. That was too much time. So
• 3:01
  Speaker 8: I looked at the clock after, and I'm like, there's
• 3:03
  Speaker 8: still eight minutes left. So it was probably unnecessary there,
• 3:06
  Speaker 8: but just trying to, like, eat as much clock as possible.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: They used the timeout after that. Trying to give them
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: as few chances as possible to get back in the game, so... But.
• 3:17
  Speaker 8: you know, if you do the analytics, people will probably
• 3:19
  Speaker 8: be all over it online, I'm sure. It probably wasn't
• 3:22
  Speaker 8: the best decision, but we scored the next play.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: So, you know, whatever. Give Basial a touchdown. That's cool.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Let him get in the end zone. Exactly.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: But just in terms of the rebound this week, being
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: able to bounce back, how important was that for you guys?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: And how did you feel like you guys played on offense?
• 3:37
  Speaker 8: I thought we played really well. You know, I think
• 3:40
  Speaker 8: played really complimentary. Our defense played great. Had some huge
• 3:42
  Speaker 8: turnovers they came up with, some big stops. You know,
• 3:45
  Speaker 8: held them in the red zone. It was awesome. So
• 3:47
  Speaker 8: I think we really fed off of that. We were
• 3:49
  Speaker 8: able to score when the defense made a big play
• 3:52
  Speaker 8: and get us the ball. And then I thought on offense,
• 3:54
  Speaker 8: obviously the first two drives, we didn't get much going,
• 3:57
  Speaker 8: but after that we settled in. I thought we had
• 3:59
  Speaker 8: a great plan. It seemed like the run game stuff
• 4:03
  Speaker 8: was really clean. When it wasn't hitting for big runs,
• 4:07
  Speaker 8: we were very efficient moving the ball forward. I thought
• 4:09
  Speaker 8: in the passing game we did a really good job
• 4:10
  Speaker 8: of getting completions, taking stuff underneath, not a bunch of
• 4:14
  Speaker 8: crazy things down the field this week, but some of
• 4:17
  Speaker 8: the things they were doing on defense was kind of
• 4:19
  Speaker 8: the reason for that. I thought guys did a great
• 4:21
  Speaker 8: job after the catch, and some of our guys made
• 4:23
  Speaker 8: some unbelievable plays.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: So it was really cool to see those guys just
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: go and do their thing.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: It's a big day for Jacoby against his former team.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Did you feel like that kind of meant something to
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: him today?
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: I think so. I mean, to be honest, I don't
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: think it really meant any more. I mean, maybe it did.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: You'd have to ask him.
• 4:40
  Speaker 8: Then any other one, I think he always is just
• 4:43
  Speaker 8: super dependable, comes to play. plays with that edge. I mean,
• 4:47
  Speaker 8: he made some awesome plays today. So I'm sure there
• 4:49
  Speaker 8: is a little bit extra there for him against his
• 4:51
  Speaker 8: former team.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: You always want to play good. But, yeah, I don't know.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: I thought he did an awesome job though today.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: What did Liam say to you after the kneel down
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: when you got to the sideline?
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: I don't think he said anything. I don't know. I
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: don't really remember. It wasn't anything, nothing crazy. Maybe he
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: did say something. I don't know. But everybody was just
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: kind of making fun of me. Yeah, I maybe overthought
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: that one just a little bit.
• 5:14
  Speaker 8: Trevor, that 15-play, eight-and-a-half-minute drive, two third downs of Jacoby
• 5:19
  Speaker 8: right there.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: How important is he in those kind of situations where
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: he knows where to go and when.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: To be there?
• 5:24
  Speaker 8: He's really good. Very dependable. Like I said, we have
• 5:29
  Speaker 8: a lot of chemistry. Trust him to be in the
• 5:32
  Speaker 8: right spot at the right time. I think he knows defenses, too,
• 5:35
  Speaker 8: and coverages. He knows what he's looking at. Seems like
• 5:38
  Speaker 8: he just has a really good feel and makes plays
• 5:40
  Speaker 8: on the ball, makes some tough contested catches. Then he
• 5:43
  Speaker 8: had a great In the red zone, the one he
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: caught was probably he caught it like four or five yards,
• 5:48
  Speaker 8: and then it was third and 11, so he went
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: and got it after the catch. So able to do
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: those things as well. So he was great. He was
• 5:54
  Speaker 8: big in those situations.
• 5:59
  Speaker 7: Trevor, Wednesday we talked about they'd only allowed four at 21,
• 6:02
  Speaker 7: third down conversions, only eight rushing first downs this year.
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: You guys shattered that today with 10 first downs on
• 6:11
  Speaker 7: the ground and eight on third down. What does that
• 6:14
  Speaker 7: mean for this football team to do this against a
• 6:16
  Speaker 7: really good defense?
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: I think it's just the next step for us.
• 6:21
  Speaker 8: It's week three, and it's just our chance to respond
• 6:24
  Speaker 8: and play better offensively and just cleaner, execute better than
• 6:28
  Speaker 8: we did last week. I thought we did that against
• 6:31
  Speaker 8: a good defense, like you said.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: It's NFL.
• 6:34
  Speaker 8: Every week, even if it's a team, statistically, it's not
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: a good defense. You've got to bring it every week.
• 6:40
  Speaker 8: I think that's a great example today. We were just
• 6:42
  Speaker 8: ready to play. We had a great plan. Guys were
• 6:43
  Speaker 8: flying around. At the end of the day, that's what
• 6:46
  Speaker 8: it's about is the players executing the plan.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: You've got to have a good plan.
• 6:50
  Speaker 8: I feel like we did, but it's about us going
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: out there and owning it and playing fast and attacking.
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: I thought we did all those things today.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: The job Chris and Basil did today and how the
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: run game was able to kind of control things for
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: you guys.
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: Yeah, they did an awesome job. I thought we stayed
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: on track. We didn't have a ton of second and longs,
• 7:12
  Speaker 8: not too many third and longs either, so I think
• 7:14
  Speaker 8: that was a big part of the game. It never
• 7:17
  Speaker 8: felt like we were living in drop back and just
• 7:19
  Speaker 8: having to try to throw at every play. We were
• 7:22
  Speaker 8: able to be really consistent, efficient, running the ball on
• 7:24
  Speaker 8: first and second down, had some really tough, good runs,
• 7:28
  Speaker 8: and then some explosive ones as well, so I think
• 7:30
  Speaker 8: that is kind of the key, right? That's how you
• 7:32
  Speaker 8: want to play football, is to be able to And
• 7:34
  Speaker 8: then you can get to all your stuff. It's not
• 7:35
  Speaker 8: like you're just having to drop back and throw it
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: every single play to get back on track.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: You can stay efficient. So it was a good example
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: of that today.
• 7:44
  Speaker 9: I apologize if this was previously mentioned, but with today's performance,
• 7:48
  Speaker 9: you are now second in franchise history in all-time passing touchdowns.
• 7:52
  Speaker 9: Just one of many accolades for you, but does that
• 7:54
  Speaker 9: in particular mean anything to you, of course?
• 7:57
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, it's super cool just to, you know,
• 8:00
  Speaker 8: been here for a while now and been through a lot.
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: And I think just to... to be on that list
• 8:05
  Speaker 8: with those guys. Obviously, there's some great names there, and
• 8:08
  Speaker 8: it's cool. I think it just shows the direction we're headed,
• 8:10
  Speaker 8: and hopefully we'll be first here soon. I don't know
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: how far I am behind Brunel, but, yeah, 40-something?
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: So, yeah, love that, right?
• 8:20
  Speaker 8: But, yeah, I think, obviously, a lot of respect for
• 8:22
  Speaker 8: those guys and some great ones before me, and it's cool.
• 8:25
  Speaker 8: It just shows there's been a lot of hard work
• 8:27
  Speaker 8: put into it, so we've got a lot more to do,
• 8:28
  Speaker 8: and the future is definitely bright, so excited for it.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: Thank you, guys. Appreciate it.
