- 0:00Speaker 1: I mean it does, It does a lot, you know,
- 0:01Speaker 1: because obviously we know we can be in those in
- 0:04Speaker 1: those type of games. Um, it's a fight to the end,
- 0:06Speaker 1: and UM, you know, we know we can make the
- 0:08Speaker 1: plays that, UM, you know we need to do to
- 0:11Speaker 1: finish it off. So I think it was a good, complimentary,
- 0:13Speaker 1: complimentary game from offense, defense and special teams and um,
- 0:18Speaker 1: you know, each each part of that game. You know,
- 0:20Speaker 1: there was a play from from each unit. So, UM,
- 0:23Speaker 1: it's very important. It was kind of needed for that
- 0:26Speaker 1: game to happen, just because you know, over the last
- 0:28Speaker 1: five games, it was like, you guys were so close
- 0:31Speaker 1: and you know that you're a good team. So to
- 0:32Speaker 1: be able to have that sort of validated, UM, was
- 0:35Speaker 1: that important. Yeah, I mean it's it's it's it's important
- 0:37Speaker 1: because you know, we had to get on the run. UM.
- 0:39Speaker 1: And I think we all know that, UM. And we
- 0:42Speaker 1: know you know what type of team we are in
- 0:44Speaker 1: the locker room. We know, uh, you know who we have.
- 0:47Speaker 1: We know what we can do, you know, and I
- 0:49Speaker 1: think we've shown that. UM. And obviously you know, getting
- 0:52Speaker 1: that game and getting over that hump. Um, it's just
- 0:55Speaker 1: we we're just a new season. You know, that's that's
- 0:57Speaker 1: how we all put it. Um. You know, we had
- 0:59Speaker 1: the nine games, even started a new nine games and
- 1:02Speaker 1: and that's how that's why, that's how we're rocking. So UM,
- 1:04Speaker 1: it was good definitely to have that, UM and you
- 1:07Speaker 1: know for us to you know, to push forward when
- 1:10Speaker 1: you get up, when you get a win like that,
- 1:11Speaker 1: when where you're down sevent team, does that instill a
- 1:14Speaker 1: little extra confidence, a different kind of confidence when you
- 1:17Speaker 1: can dig yourself out of a hole and get the
- 1:19Speaker 1: w Yes, most definitely. You know obviously we don't want
- 1:21Speaker 1: to start like that, but UM, you know, just having
- 1:24Speaker 1: that confidence and that ability to um, you know, to
- 1:27Speaker 1: overcome that from you know, from down seventeen, UM, that's big.
- 1:31Speaker 1: You know obviously, Uh, you know, wins are hard hard
- 1:34Speaker 1: to come by in this league. You know, there's a
- 1:35Speaker 1: lot of good teams and and good players and stuff
- 1:38Speaker 1: like that. And you know for us to um to
- 1:40Speaker 1: fight back and and and get that going and pull
- 1:42Speaker 1: out that win, UM, you know, that's that's amazing. You've
- 1:46Speaker 1: got a young quarterback like try let's trying to figure
- 1:48Speaker 1: it out and it's off and down and get other
- 1:50Speaker 1: than that, when you come back from seventeen year old
- 1:53Speaker 1: when we say a time of frenchise history. What does
- 1:55Speaker 1: they that do for his conference? Do you think was
- 1:57Speaker 1: it a needed boost that you had to have? Yeah?
- 1:59Speaker 1: Most of funny, I think it was it was something
- 2:01Speaker 1: that we all needed, um, you know as a team. Um,
- 2:04Speaker 1: and we all know you know who Trevor is. He
- 2:06Speaker 1: you know he's uh, he's super focused and doesn't let
- 2:10Speaker 1: anything really pretty much rattle him, you know, so, UM,
- 2:13Speaker 1: it's not surprising. But at the same time, UM, you
- 2:16Speaker 1: know it's definitely needed, you know, you know for him,
- 2:19Speaker 1: um to get these things going and you know, to
- 2:21Speaker 1: have a two minute drive in there and you know,
- 2:24Speaker 1: get points, um, you know, come up with some big
- 2:26Speaker 1: place some big runs that you know that he did,
- 2:28Speaker 1: um to get some points on the board. So it was,
- 2:31Speaker 1: you know, it was amazing to see and it's obviously
- 2:33Speaker 1: great for him. Remember that when you were a young
- 2:36Speaker 1: guy and everything's want to go all the way? Uh,
- 2:39Speaker 1: did you whose confidence that he did you start to
- 2:42Speaker 1: job yourself at all? No? Heck, no, is not just why.
- 2:50Speaker 1: I don't know, I can't speak for everybody, but uh,
- 2:53Speaker 1: I mean I've never I've never felt that way, Um,
- 2:56Speaker 1: just because I felt always felt like and I still
- 2:58Speaker 1: feel like to this day. You give me the opportunity
- 3:00Speaker 1: and and I'm gonna capitalize on it more more than
- 3:04Speaker 1: I don't, you know. So I think you have to
- 3:06Speaker 1: you have to be like that in this league. Um
- 3:08Speaker 1: if you're not, if you're not like that, then you
- 3:10Speaker 1: don't last long, you know. So I think you know,
- 3:13Speaker 1: in this locker room, we have people, um you know
- 3:16Speaker 1: that think like that. So um yeah, but I obviously
- 3:19Speaker 1: I can't I can't speak for anybody else, but um,
- 3:21Speaker 1: you know, when you're young, you need you need those
- 3:23Speaker 1: these type of games. Um, you know what I'm saying.
- 3:25Speaker 1: And as much as you could be on the field
- 3:27Speaker 1: every snap, you know, you're getting experienced and you're getting confident.
- 3:30Speaker 1: So it's a it's a confident game. If you don't
- 3:32Speaker 1: have it, you don't belong here in your career. Oh
- 3:36Speaker 1: most definitely, Yeah, definitely, because it must be pretty happent forever, right, Yeah,
- 3:41Speaker 1: I mean it's evident. I mean, yeah, it just happens.
- 3:45Speaker 1: But yeah, I've seen it happen in this it's uh yeah,
- 3:48Speaker 1: I mean it doesn't happen in you forward now from
- 3:52Speaker 1: here just sort of stacking the ones like you're talking about. Well,
- 3:56Speaker 1: I mean the main thing is you gotta get one,
- 3:58Speaker 1: you know before you get to so um, so you
- 4:01Speaker 1: know we're doing the one one ft forward approach. Um,
- 4:05Speaker 1: we have one, so it's time to focus on the
- 4:07Speaker 1: next one. And that's all we're focused on. Um, And
- 4:10Speaker 1: that's what we have to do, you know, in order
- 4:12Speaker 1: to go on the run. But I think we're in
- 4:14Speaker 1: a good place with that. So um, now we're just
- 4:17Speaker 1: focused on the chiefs and and and that's our only goal.
- 4:19Speaker 1: It's getting it's gonna it's gonna do w there and
- 4:21Speaker 1: then um, you know we could think further after that.
- 4:23Speaker 1: So for you as a wide receivers, it thunder blocked.
- 4:26Speaker 1: For a guy like travesy team, like you're out there
- 4:28Speaker 1: blocking and just kind of look up and there goes Yeah.
- 4:30Speaker 1: I mean most definitely. You know, I've been a part
- 4:33Speaker 1: of some some great, some good wresting teams, you know,
- 4:36Speaker 1: early on in my career. Um, and you know, you
- 4:39Speaker 1: just never know. So you don't want to be the
- 4:41Speaker 1: guy that it's your guy that tackles him, you know
- 4:44Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So, uh, sometimes when you're on the
- 4:46Speaker 1: backside and you know he's gone. It's good to you know,
- 4:48Speaker 1: look up at the screen and stuff like that. But um,
- 4:51Speaker 1: when you're on the front side of the play, yeah,
- 4:53Speaker 1: you don't want to be that guy. But we know
- 4:56Speaker 1: that he's that guy that could that could you know,
- 4:58Speaker 1: take anything and um, you know, any which way and
- 5:01Speaker 1: and and score and and do all that exciting stuff.
- 5:05Speaker 1: So it's it's good to be a part of. You've
- 5:08Speaker 1: been around Trevor for a year and a half now,
- 5:11Speaker 1: that is impressive to stand in terms of it's spoiling's accuracy,
- 5:17Speaker 1: just the whole well he was. I mean, I can't
- 5:20Speaker 1: say it's the best he's been, but um, you know,
- 5:23Speaker 1: but it's it's just something that's that's expected that we
- 5:25Speaker 1: that we expect, you know, from him because he has
- 5:28Speaker 1: it in him for sure, you know. So Um, you
- 5:31Speaker 1: know when he's in when he's in the groove and
- 5:33Speaker 1: he's you know, hidting passes early and and running the
- 5:35Speaker 1: ball for first downs and stuff like that. When he's
- 5:38Speaker 1: in that groove, um early, Um, he's I mean, he's
- 5:41Speaker 1: he's a great talent. Everybody knows that, you know. Um,
- 5:44Speaker 1: when he get catches that that groove, it's you know,
- 5:47Speaker 1: watch out. So um definitely. How important is wrong performance
