- 1:08Speaker 1: earlier in the season. Uh, two weeks from later. Nobody
- 1:11Speaker 1: we remember this game, and we have to understand that
- 1:13Speaker 1: and keep moving.
- 1:15Speaker 2: Be persistent with the running game. Is that an example
- 1:18Speaker 2: of that today?
- 1:19Speaker 1: Yeah, most definitely. I mean that's just the NFL. H.
- 1:22Speaker 1: I feel like you see week in the week out. Uh,
- 1:24Speaker 1: you won't see guys get a hundred as they don't
- 1:26Speaker 1: have twenty carries. This is the NFL. Everyone's on the Uh.
- 1:29Speaker 1: They have great defenders out there, great defensive lines and
- 1:31Speaker 1: stuff like that, and we're able to just stick with it.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Like the first half, Uh, they played really well. They
- 1:37Speaker 1: play discipline, We're making tackles and uh just gotta kind
- 1:41Speaker 1: of wear them down throughout the game and wear them down,
- 1:42Speaker 1: wear them down. Who was able to do that? And
- 1:44Speaker 1: now those times that was making it in the first quarter,
- 1:46Speaker 1: second quarter, third quarter, fourth quarter. I don't want to
- 1:48Speaker 1: make those taples no more. Guys start making business decisions,
- 1:51Speaker 1: and that's when you have to just put your head
- 1:53Speaker 1: down and keep running.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Twenty seconds left, like when Joe has full, Bill has Troy.
- 1:59Speaker 2: How are you feeling all of these guys and saw
- 2:01Speaker 2: watching out.
- 2:01Speaker 1: On I mean, honestly, I feel I got great fings.
- 2:06Speaker 1: Defense had a heck of a game, So I was
- 2:08Speaker 1: feeling great. I feel like we had a chance to
- 2:11Speaker 1: go out there and put it away. We didn't, but
- 2:13Speaker 1: our defense had a chance and they went out there
- 2:15Speaker 1: and they did it for us, and uh, that's all
- 2:17Speaker 1: I can ask for us. So I was feeling great.
- 2:19Speaker 1: They held Josh out in all game. I feel they
- 2:21Speaker 1: did a great job. And uh and I love that
- 2:24Speaker 1: Travis so much about this team advertising.
- 2:28Speaker 3: In the pre season that this is a team that
- 2:30Speaker 3: was keeping being Super Bowl contender.
- 2:32Speaker 2: Is that the team we saw today? Ah?
- 2:35Speaker 1: Yes, sir, but we have a long way to go.
- 2:37Speaker 1: I understand that it's a long season. It's a seventeen
- 2:40Speaker 1: game season. It's not one week, one week, two week three,
- 2:43Speaker 1: and now we have to continue to find ways to
- 2:45Speaker 1: get better. We won the game to day, but we're
- 2:47Speaker 1: going to look at film and understand that we've got
- 2:49Speaker 1: a lot of things to clean up, and now we
- 2:51Speaker 1: have to keep moving in the right direction. I feel
- 2:53Speaker 1: like we're doing it as a team. As long as
- 2:54Speaker 1: we keep moving direction. Later in the season, we gail
- 2:57Speaker 1: and we'd be great. Your playming you played today, it
- 3:01Speaker 1: was the hotst offense coming in for a.
- 3:02Speaker 2: Really good defense as well.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Uh, do you feel like you guys maybe sent a
- 3:07Speaker 1: little bit of a message to.
- 3:08Speaker 3: The rest of the AFC that you know we're not
- 3:10Speaker 3: going away.
- 3:11Speaker 1: I mean, yes, sir, we just come out here and
- 3:13Speaker 1: just do our job. I mean, uh, I just played football.
- 3:16Speaker 1: We we coming here every week with the expectations to win,
- 3:19Speaker 1: and now that's what we want to continue to do.
- 3:21Speaker 1: And we might have had two off games, but that
- 3:23Speaker 1: doesn't define us. One game don't define us. And we
- 3:25Speaker 1: want the world to know that and understand that it's
- 3:28Speaker 1: a long season, so we can't just get lost in this.
- 3:32Speaker 4: When you watched four minutes before the end of the
- 3:35Speaker 4: game that drive you were the main for a good
- 3:37Speaker 4: jo entered with the taxown without fifty three. How do
- 3:40Speaker 4: you feel that the offensive line and you played that
- 3:43Speaker 4: kind of close game and the running game was the decisive.
- 3:48Speaker 1: I feel like that's great. I feel like, uh, that's
- 3:50Speaker 1: what you want out of your offense when the games
- 3:53Speaker 1: you're closed later and it's late late in the games,
- 3:55Speaker 1: you want your run game to be the closer, be
- 3:57Speaker 1: the be the finisher. Uh. And we were able to
- 3:59Speaker 1: do that, were able to put good things on film,
- 4:01Speaker 1: and you got to continue to ticket one player at
- 4:03Speaker 1: the time, and good things that happened for us.
- 4:07Speaker 3: Sorry satisfying considering that there was so much of the
- 4:11Speaker 3: Bills mafia here today of course last week, see that
- 4:13Speaker 3: was many for the Jags. You guys were team and
- 4:15Speaker 3: the Bills when today technically the Hunanteam seven of the
- 4:18Speaker 3: travel World was a little bit more satisfying to be
- 4:20Speaker 3: able to sort of silence and especially your touchdown.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Yeah, we definitely. I remember at the beginning of the
- 4:25Speaker 1: game just running out and I ran out and it
- 4:28Speaker 1: was just so many booths. I feel like I never
- 4:30Speaker 1: heard that in London, and I thought we were the
- 4:32Speaker 1: London team honestly, and I realized today that we weren't
- 4:35Speaker 1: not today, and I just wanted to kind of just
- 4:38Speaker 1: give them something to show as my first time playing
- 4:40Speaker 1: in the stadium, I wanted to go out there and
- 4:42Speaker 1: just put on a masterpiece for everyone out there.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Have a discussion of you not scoring when you were
- 4:50Speaker 2: from thirty four yards old to take more time off
- 4:53Speaker 2: the clock, and then but we're you're too far out
- 4:56Speaker 2: to even discussing.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Nah, So we never had a discussion about it. I
- 5:00Speaker 1: already knew if coach could have could have told me
- 5:02Speaker 1: about it, he probably told me go down and Uh.
- 5:04Speaker 1: I thought about it, and I was like, nah, and
- 5:08Speaker 1: they that uh they've been having The crowd was going
- 5:12Speaker 1: crazy all game, and I just wanted to go out
- 5:13Speaker 1: there and try to put the game away. And defense
- 5:15Speaker 1: were playing really well, and I feel like it was
- 5:17Speaker 1: the right thing to do at the time.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Did you defense? Uh?
- 5:26Speaker 1: In the US stand up and uh here sir, I
- 5:32Speaker 1: felt like it was just so much louder here. Uh
- 5:34Speaker 1: just just force to be a regular season game, just
- 5:36Speaker 1: for it to be week five. I feel like the
- 5:40Speaker 1: the intensity the crowd that everyone was just going crazy.
- 5:44Speaker 1: And uh. I remember I'm out there on the field. Uh,
- 5:48Speaker 1: I'm leaning in the huddle and I'm like, what is
- 5:51Speaker 1: Trail saying? Like I can't hear Trail, So like I
- 5:53Speaker 1: had to ask him again, and I thought it the
- 5:55Speaker 1: first time it happened for me in my NFL career. Okay,
