  Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks is with one of the two guys who
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: had an interception tonight, Monteric Buster Brown. Everbank, advantage you.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Other banks talk a big game. We deliver big results.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Buck?
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: Hey, Buster, talk about that defensive performance. Did a great
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: job shutting down. Derrick Henry in coverage for most of
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: the game. And you got a pick.
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, man. It was a great week of practice,
• 0:19
  Speaker 4: and we had a great plan coming in. We know
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: we had to stop the run. We wanted to make
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: them throw the ball, and we knew once they threw
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: the ball, we had chances to have opportunities to get
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: the ball back. So, and that's what happened.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: So it's so weird to play against an unusual offense,
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: Wildcat offense, the entire time they're doing a bunch of
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: different things early. They got a backup quarterback that you
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: don't know. How long did it take you guys to
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: kind of settle in and then kind of figure out, okay,
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: this is what they're doing. This is what we need
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: to take away.
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: No, me personally, I feel like we settled in like
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: the first two drives, you know, we got to kind of,
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: we got to feel for what they wanted to do.
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: You know, you know, we did a great job. Yeah.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Y'all actually have done a great job all year long. Um,
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: In this league, you don't dominate people like this. You
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: don't win by 20 plus points as a one score lead.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Why have you guys been so good at being able
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: to separate from teams when you know that you got
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: them down?
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: You know, as a locker room, you know, all the
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: guys are close. You know, that means a lot to us.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: You know, we all bind it together. And, you know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: we always practice hard and execute and, you know, do
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: our job every day and talk about everything. So, you know,
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: we got a great group of guys.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: You know, what is really good, and this is the
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: last thing, You guys have 11 interceptions. Like, how often
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: do you guys talk about in the DB room about
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: getting your hands on tips and overthrows and how important
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: it is to get those turnovers?
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Every day. You know, we talk about our opportunities to
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: get the ball back, you know, punching the ball, intercepting
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: the ball, tips and overthrows, all that. So, you know,
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: that's a daily emphasis for our defense. And, you know,
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: any chance we get, you know, we capitalize on it.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Well, look, man, enjoy the long weekend. Enjoy the kind
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: of mini-bye that you get. Man, great win. Look forward
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: to seeing you guys next week.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir. Thank you.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Bucky Brooks at the Everbank Vault inside
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: M & T Bank Stadium in Baltimore.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Buck?
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Coach, thoughts on a great win on Thursday.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just proud of the guys' mental and physical toughness
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: throughout the week. It was one of the best short
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: weeks I've ever been a part of from the group,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: from the guys, from the staff. They were locked in
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: from Monday. I mean, that Monday was a long day
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: that they came in, had to get rehab, treatment, watch
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: the film. then go do two walkthroughs and an entire
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: normal down-the-distance game plan install. The guys just handled the
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: week professionally. The process was clean. I think that's what
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: led us to go and execute the way we did tonight.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: It's funny.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: After the game, I talked to Jordan Lewis. He said,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: I don't think the coach is asleep. He talked about
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: you guys, their air matches. He said they felt like
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: they were so prepared for this game that they weren't
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: surprised with the wildcat or any of those things. So
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: talk about what went into it for you guys to
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: get prepared for a short week like that.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, challenging. But we were working on Baltimore
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: during the, you know, on the bye. Like that was
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: what was, you know, obviously we had a bye, but
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: we also had a short week coming off the bye.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: So we had to do a lot of work on
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Baltimore prior to Indy. Right. And a lot of it,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the coaching staff did a phenomenal job of getting the
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: game plan together and dialed it in very detailed very
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: you know trimmed inventory um and tried to just do
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: what our guys do best right and we were prepared
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: for the wildcat i mean we practiced a ton of
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: wildcat yesterday a ton of it today in our walkthrough
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: so uh kudos to those guys for you know for
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: being on the screws.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Uh offensively past game was on point uh working over
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the middle it was really nice to see everybody get
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: involved yeah number 16 is playing at an unbelievable level
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: just talk about his growth and maturity over the course
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: of the year.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: It was great to start fast, right? Something that we've
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: been harping on last week, 98-yard drive. This week, 70-plus-yard drive,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: we wanted to take the ball to try to steal
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: an early drive possession knowing the rain was coming and
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: to see them go and execute that way, get a
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: big explosive, go down the field, score a touchdown. That's
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: just a sign of maturity. It's a sign that we
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: are maturing, hopefully, and can continue to handle more and more, right?
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: And so You know, very pleased with Trevor right now.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's playing accurate. He's playing with great feel, anticipation, timing.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: His footwork's really clean right now, so been very pleased
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: with him.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Getting to know you a little bit, I know you
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: have high standards for the offense, and I can see
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: you kind of crossed your arms. You look disappointed that
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: you guys left some points on the field, particularly after
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: those turnovers. Going back into next week, how do you
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: work on that? What do you talk to the guys about?
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: I got to watch it, but I didn't feel like
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: we were maybe sustaining blocks for as long as we could.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know if we were running with our best
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: patience and vision and feel in some of those runs,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: but I got to go watch it. I was frustrated
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: that to not end the game on our terms at
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: some points there. To continue to nip and get points, great.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: It's awesome, but When you can score 50, we got
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: to go score 50.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Yes, I get that. So now people talk about the
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: short week, but the benefit is kind of like a
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: mini buy. So how do you handle coming off a
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Thursday game with a few more days to prepare and
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: kind of rest up?
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the players will be off for the next few days.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: We'll see them on Monday, do a bonus day on
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Monday to prepare. Then their normal day off will be
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: on Tuesday. And then we'll get back right into the
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: work week on Wednesday.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Well, look, man, enjoy the weekend. Enjoy another win. We
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: look forward to seeing you next week.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Thanks, Buck.
