  Speaker 1: You hit Stroud on the second play I think from
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: scrimmage that they had and then obviously in the game
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: on the deflection. Just is where is this one ranked
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: for you in terms of getting the win over Houston
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: and how well you played throughout the entire game.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, first and foremost, Man, my teammates, Man, we
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: battled our butts off today. We knew it was going
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: to be a ticket game that was going to be
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: on offense, defense, special teams, whoever, whoever was going to
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: be in that moment at the last second, we was
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: going to have to take it. So just you know,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: I just want to give all credit to God and
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: my teammates. Man, they battled their butts off. And but
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: for me, Man, I just did my part, tried to
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: stay one player at the time and just you know,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: do what I came for my team, and you know,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: I saw opportunity, and yeah, we ended the game the
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: right way.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Josh, nine turnovers already forced through three games this season.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: You had nine all last year here as coach Campanelli
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: brought some new stuff to the thing to the system,
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: or you guys just be able to make more plays.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit of everything, the play calling,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: the play calls see more aggressive. But then we also
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: had guys in the back end that that that does
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: you know, that does that, that's in the right spot,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: that wants to be physical a point of contact, and
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: that just wants to play for each other. And then
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: once we all buy into what we're doing up front,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: good things happen. Obviously, you know, good things are happening.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: We trust each other, Russian coverage trust each other a lot.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Devin Lloyd is playing out of his mind right now,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: and him and Foyer both so you know, if each
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: level guys are playing at a superstar level, you know
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: we'll be a tough team to beat.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Josh Coach Cohen said, you were a little emotional in
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: the locker room. Was that because of the history with
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: Houston or the way the defense is playing?
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: What what the emotional before or after the game? Victory?
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Victory's got to win. That was a that was a
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: tough win. It's so again, it's so hard to win
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: in the National Football League. So and the mentality that
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: we wanted to come into this week was we got
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: to take it. Last week, we kind of let that
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: slip away and we didn't take it, and here was
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: another opportunity for.
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: Us to go go get it.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: And so for us to go out there and to
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: prove that we are that type of team we do have.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: You know, we're building something very special here. We got
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: to keep capitalizing off that. So, yes, I was very emotional,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: huge win against a good team, nevertheless, but it's just
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: a great, you know, building point to how far can
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: we go and move on to next week?
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: Hey, Josh, can you talk a little bit more about that.
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: This this is the kind of game that you guys
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: have really struggled to win over the last two seasons,
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: and to get one. What does that do just mentally
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: for the confidence of this group going forward?
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: I mean it's huge.
• 2:35
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: We I feel like, you know, going into each game,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: we expect to win. We put the work in every
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: single day, We trust the process, We trust each side
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: of the ball, offensively, defensively, special teams. We just trust
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: each other. And so to go out there and prove
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: that point that you know, we are a close knick
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: team and to go out there and fight for each
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: other and just get it, it's just a wonderful feeling.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: And we're just gonna have to keep building about it,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: keep building on it.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: But next week is a different task and.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Different opportunity, and we got to go about it a
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: little bit different.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: But just keep the main thing, the main thing.
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: Did you get the ball with your right hand or
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: your left hand?
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: My right hand?
• 3:13
  Speaker 8: I think I don't.
• 3:16
  Speaker 9: Know, Josh, congrats on the victory. You know last year
• 3:23
  Speaker 9: you guys lost to this team twice.
• 3:25
  Speaker 8: I mean, was it?
• 3:27
  Speaker 9: Is it a confidence matter this time around to do
• 3:30
  Speaker 9: that and to beat them? And secondly, take us through
• 3:34
  Speaker 9: the last drive they made a fourth down conversion to
• 3:36
  Speaker 9: keep the drive going? What's going through your mind through
• 3:42
  Speaker 9: the t you know, as as they're driving down the field,
• 3:45
  Speaker 9: And what kind of you know, calm do you have
• 3:47
  Speaker 9: during that?
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: So those are two different questions, So let me try
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: to remember the first one. The first one. I mean,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: you know, last year was last year. Now, you know,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: we're building a whole new different regime here. The guys
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that we brought in, the guys that we drafted, the
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: guy you're about to talk to after this, Our guys
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: really bought into this organization and uh, you know, we
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: just play for each other. And again, like I just
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: told him, Man, this a week by week league it's
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: a take it league, and we're at that mindset of
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: taking every opportunity we can. Second question, being in that
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: situation was just like we gotta we gotta take it,
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: We gotta get it, no matter the situation.
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: They wasn't gonna score. That was that was our mentality.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: You know, hold him. They not scorn, They can drive
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: the field whatever they want to do. They not scoring.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: And you know, we just made a play and Antonio
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: was in the right spot, being where he's supposed to
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: be and took advantage of the opportunity.
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: And I can't be more.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Proud to him, prout for him, and uh, come back Monday,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: watch this tape and move on with San France.
• 4:53
  Speaker 10: Hey, Josh, it's probably the third game in a row
• 4:54
  Speaker 10: where Jordan Lewis made a pretty big play, you know,
• 4:57
  Speaker 10: two of them that resulted in the wins. But just
• 5:00
  Speaker 10: what has he meant to this defense? And you talk
• 5:02
  Speaker 10: about confidence, you know, being able to have a guy
• 5:04
  Speaker 10: like him on the team, how has that helped the
• 5:06
  Speaker 10: confidence of the defense?
• 5:07
  Speaker 7: Man?
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: He's huge, man, I've learned a lot.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I gotta I gained a lot of respect for him
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: the first week of practice. The way he attacks it
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the way he kind of pushes and motivates and challenges
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: everybody in his room and then outside the defense. And
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: for me is a guy that's been here and I
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: kind of carry myself the same way. To see that
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: and to see a guy make a lot of plays,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: it just makes me want to become a better player.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: So I think he just pushes the guys that were
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: at that point to become a better player.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: And just you know, I.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Can't I'm not surprised now, Like it's like, you know,
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: I expect him to do these things, not because like
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: he is who he is, but because he does it
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: the right way and he challenges and he pushes and
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: he motivates.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: A guy has to do it the right way as well.
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: So you know, I'm so happy for my head that
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: he's on our team.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I know he's glad and proud to be on our
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: team and to be Jacksonville Jaguar and create a culture
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: here that's you know, that we can build on and
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: you know, set a sting for ourselves.
• 6:01
  Speaker 11: Hey, Josh, seems like you guys got pressure pretty consistently
• 6:04
  Speaker 11: today with this performance. Just kind of say about the
• 6:06
  Speaker 11: guys you have up front and the unit. You guys
• 6:08
  Speaker 11: have kind of built up there.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think coming into the week coach Camp
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: challenged up front. He said it was gonna be you know,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: we're gonna we're gonna rush for and we're gonna drop
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: everybody else.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: And so for us, it was just like we gotta
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: go hunt.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: So I think just throwing out Wednesday practice, you know,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: our mindset was we gotta go, We got to attack.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: We got to prove to them and to prove to
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: everybody else in our defense that we can't take advantage
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: of games. Uh, So today was just you know, just
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: to carry over from Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and now
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Sunday to where we can just go at it and
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: improve the point that we can just rush for and
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: we also can blitz because you see what when we blitzer,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: we get turnedovers, we change up the secondary disguises. So
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Camp has done a you know a great job on
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: listening to us up front, and uh he's calling the
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: heck of a game, and you know I wouldn't be
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: I love playing for him.
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: I think we all do too. So we got his back.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Seeing the reaction of beating Houston, a team that's had
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars number for a number of years.
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: It's a blessing.
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: We came out with a dub. We went in there,
• 7:11
  Speaker 7: did everything the coach just told us to do. Even
• 7:14
  Speaker 7: when we had a little set best we fall through it.
• 7:16
  Speaker 7: Adversally we fall through it. So I was pretty excited to,
• 7:18
  Speaker 7: you know, come out with a win.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: And what did you make of josh heinz Allen's performance today?
• 7:23
  Speaker 8: He did great.
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: He did what he was supposed to do, helped the
• 7:25
  Speaker 7: team out. He did his job, and he was able
• 7:27
  Speaker 7: to capitalize on one of the big, big jobs he
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: did at the end of the game.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: Chs. What's it like for you when you see a
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: guy who was struggling like Briant was today and then
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: to come up with the big play at the end
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: of the game. What can that do for him? And
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: what does it mean for you guys to kind of
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: see him come through in that moment.
• 7:45
  Speaker 7: It's just a confidence booster for all of the guys
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: in the room. You know, we see him as a leader.
• 7:48
  Speaker 7: You know, he had a thousand yard receiver. We expected
• 7:51
  Speaker 7: him to be on top of his game every game
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: and just to see him bounce back and block out
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: all the noise and just go do his job and
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: do what he's supposed to do. It means a lot
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: to the younger guys in a row.
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: This is the kind of game that this team hasn't
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: been able to really win the last two years, where
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: it's comes down to the end, there's one play here,
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: maye here or there. So did you hear guys in
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: there talking about that? And what kind of boost this
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: gives to the confidence overall?
• 8:17
  Speaker 7: No, we don't talk. We want to talk like that.
• 8:19
  Speaker 7: We go out there and try to win every game.
• 8:21
  Speaker 7: We go out there and do what we're supposed to
• 8:23
  Speaker 7: do to win every game. We won't talk like that.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: We won't talk about what happened in the past. We
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: just president in the future and president right now.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: How good was it to finally get loose in the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: twenty one yard catch and run? How did that play
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: open up for you?
• 8:40
  Speaker 7: They call my number, they gave me the ball and
• 8:42
  Speaker 7: I deald. What I always do my job?
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: And what's it like being in the room with Jordan
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Lewis And what does he bring to the secondary.
• 8:50
  Speaker 7: He's always focused, you know, always ready and always on
• 8:52
  Speaker 7: top of his game. So just having him in a
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: room you know, you got to do your job because
• 8:55
  Speaker 7: he gonna do his job. Man, that's what he expects.
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: He expects for all of us to do our job
• 8:59
  Speaker 7: because we know he go to do his.
• 9:02
  Speaker 12: Travis is an anthropology major. I'm curious to hear your
• 9:04
  Speaker 12: take on the culture of the Jacksonville Jaguars maybe compared
• 9:07
  Speaker 12: to the Colorado Buffaloes.
• 9:09
  Speaker 8: We just got work to do.
• 9:10
  Speaker 7: We just got to continue to win for them so
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: they can keep coming on and showing us, Shawn the
• 9:14
  Speaker 7: fan base.
• 9:15
  Speaker 13: Next play mentality, I think we had. There's a good
• 9:18
  Speaker 13: example of that the end of today's game. I mean,
• 9:19
  Speaker 13: the things didn't go our way for a lot of
• 9:21
  Speaker 13: the game offensively, and just find a way to make
• 9:23
  Speaker 13: the next play. They had a cover zero pressure that
• 9:27
  Speaker 13: you know, we were able to see and identify and
• 9:29
  Speaker 13: get to the right play, and Brian just did a
• 9:31
  Speaker 13: great job of winning and making the play. That's why
• 9:33
  Speaker 13: I told him on the sideline is just hey, stay
• 9:35
  Speaker 13: in it. You're gonna end up making the play to
• 9:36
  Speaker 13: set this one up for us to go win it.
• 9:38
  Speaker 8: So then it happened.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: You alluded to a little bit there, but the whole
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: team kind of got infected with the drops he's there
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: during the course of the game as an offensive leader quarterback,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: what is your responsibility that you feel that you want
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: to take on the sidelines in that situation with everybody.
• 9:52
  Speaker 13: Yeah, just keep encouraging, keep getting guys to just next
• 9:55
  Speaker 13: play mentality think that way, and you know it's not
• 9:57
  Speaker 13: all on them too. There was a lot of stuff that,
• 10:00
  Speaker 13: you know, I didn't play my best today, so there's
• 10:02
  Speaker 13: a lot of throws that you know, I went back
• 10:04
  Speaker 13: or I didn't put in the spot I wanted to,
• 10:06
  Speaker 13: and it's all of us together, but we it was
• 10:08
  Speaker 13: good to see us not let that dictate how we
• 10:11
  Speaker 13: were gonna finish the game and just find a way
• 10:13
  Speaker 13: to make a couple of plays at the end when
• 10:14
  Speaker 13: it mattered to you know, to go up. And then
• 10:17
  Speaker 13: obviously our defense can't say enough about how they just
• 10:21
  Speaker 13: kept fighting and had our back and the turnovers, the
• 10:23
  Speaker 13: big stops, I mean put them in, We put them
• 10:25
  Speaker 13: in some bad positions and they just kept making stops
• 10:27
  Speaker 13: and kept playing. You know, they never never looked at
• 10:30
  Speaker 13: us and we're like, what are you doing when they
• 10:32
  Speaker 13: when they easily could have We were playing pretty bad
• 10:34
  Speaker 13: there in the middle stretch of the game, So hats
• 10:37
  Speaker 13: off to them. Just it's a team you know, it's
• 10:39
  Speaker 13: a team game, and you find a way to win
• 10:40
  Speaker 13: and you fix the stuff that needs to be corrected.
• 10:43
  Speaker 8: But it's a lot a lot more fun when you win.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: You and Josh Hainzellen have gone through a lot here.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: What was it like seeing his performance and then walking
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: off the field, you know, kind of arm and arm
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: with him in a victory over Houston.
• 10:55
  Speaker 13: Yeah, it's just it's awesome a guy like you said,
• 10:58
  Speaker 13: I've been here with for going on five years now.
• 11:00
  Speaker 8: We've been through a lot together, a lot of upside
• 11:02
  Speaker 8: of downs.
• 11:03
  Speaker 13: To see our team just continue to come together and
• 11:06
  Speaker 13: that you know, family feeling like we're like we talk
• 11:09
  Speaker 13: about with our team and doing it for each other
• 11:10
  Speaker 13: and you can see that happening, and I think as
• 11:13
  Speaker 13: a team we feel that and just the you know,
• 11:15
  Speaker 13: being able to go and win games that aren't pretty
• 11:17
  Speaker 13: that's something that to be a really good team you
• 11:20
  Speaker 13: have to do.
• 11:21
  Speaker 8: And we did that today.
• 11:22
  Speaker 13: And you know, you obviously want to play better moving
• 11:24
  Speaker 13: forward as an offense, but to be able to go
• 11:27
  Speaker 13: win games when you don't play your best is important.
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: So that was a big step for us.
• 11:31
  Speaker 9: Today, Trevor, things just kind of looked not in sync
• 11:36
  Speaker 9: at times with you. Is it just a matter of mechanics?
• 11:39
  Speaker 9: Was it just people not being in the right spot?
• 11:42
  Speaker 9: You know, you mentioned the drops, He's a little bit.
• 11:45
  Speaker 8: I think it's a mixture of a lot of things.
• 11:47
  Speaker 13: You know, I think there was some times where you know,
• 11:49
  Speaker 13: on the interception I got greedy, just a dumb play
• 11:52
  Speaker 13: by me. You know, I got to just check it
• 11:53
  Speaker 13: down and we either punt or maybe we run for
• 11:56
  Speaker 13: the first down on the underneath it.
• 11:57
  Speaker 8: So that's just a really bad play by me.
• 11:59
  Speaker 13: And then a couple missus, just some accuracy stuff I
• 12:03
  Speaker 13: need to clean up, a couple you know, communication things,
• 12:06
  Speaker 13: a couple drops. Like I said, it's a mixture of
• 12:07
  Speaker 13: all the things. We all got to be better. Starts
• 12:09
  Speaker 13: with me as the quarterback. You know, I gotta be sharper,
• 12:11
  Speaker 13: gotta play better moving forward to give us a chance.
• 12:14
  Speaker 13: You know, you can't rely on our defense get three
• 12:15
  Speaker 13: turnovers every week and get pretty much every stop. You know,
• 12:18
  Speaker 13: we gotta go score some points and you know, control
• 12:20
  Speaker 13: the game a little bit.
• 12:21
  Speaker 8: Hey, Trevor, you.
• 12:22
  Speaker 10: Kind of alluded to it earlier, but just what kind
• 12:25
  Speaker 10: of confidence does a win like today where it's not
• 12:27
  Speaker 10: always pretty but.
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: You win anyway. What what? What?
• 12:31
  Speaker 10: What kind of confidence does that give the team.
• 12:33
  Speaker 8: A lot of confidence?
• 12:34
  Speaker 13: You know when when you have that feeling of you
• 12:35
  Speaker 13: don't have to play perfect to win. You just have
• 12:37
  Speaker 13: to continue to fight and play the next play and
• 12:40
  Speaker 13: find a way to make the plays when it matters,
• 12:42
  Speaker 13: and you don't know when that's going to be today.
• 12:44
  Speaker 13: You know, Fortunately it was at the end and we
• 12:46
  Speaker 13: were able to make those plays and that's when it.
• 12:48
  Speaker 8: Mattered and we needed them.
• 12:49
  Speaker 13: But on the flip side, it's not going to be
• 12:52
  Speaker 13: like that every week. Sometimes the mistakes get too much
• 12:55
  Speaker 13: to come back from and you got to play a
• 12:57
  Speaker 13: little cleaner throughout.
• 12:58
  Speaker 8: So it just it's the NFL. It's hard to win.
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: You enjoy all of them.
• 13:02
  Speaker 13: We're gonna enjoy this one and we're gonna move on
• 13:04
  Speaker 13: and go get ready for San Fran But man, it's
• 13:07
  Speaker 13: hard to win. So I'm proud of the team and
• 13:08
  Speaker 13: how we bounce back, and there's plenty to clean up,
• 13:10
  Speaker 13: but you know, we're gonna enjoy it.
• 13:13
  Speaker 11: With the defense playing the way it has three takeaways
• 13:15
  Speaker 11: in each game, Just how is that kind of supported
• 13:18
  Speaker 11: you just as a quarterback.
• 13:19
  Speaker 8: As an offense, it's huge.
• 13:20
  Speaker 13: I mean, you win the turnover margin, you're gonna statistically,
• 13:24
  Speaker 13: you're gonna win most of your game. So I think
• 13:25
  Speaker 13: for us as an offense, we have to continue speaking
• 13:27
  Speaker 13: to myself just to take care of the ball, and
• 13:30
  Speaker 13: you know, use that as an advantage for us. You know,
• 13:33
  Speaker 13: don't give them, don't give them freebies back when our
• 13:35
  Speaker 13: defense is doing a good job of getting turnovers. So
• 13:37
  Speaker 13: I got to continue to just sharpen up on that
• 13:39
  Speaker 13: and play better and take care of the ball. But yeah,
• 13:41
  Speaker 13: it's huge, and your defense can get turnovers, that's I mean,
• 13:44
  Speaker 13: that's the name of the game, is getting the ball
• 13:45
  Speaker 13: back in this league.
• 13:47
  Speaker 12: Trevor, what are some of the biggest changes that you've
• 13:49
  Speaker 12: seen for this team or from last season to this season,
• 13:51
  Speaker 12: anything that has really led to the success that you've
• 13:54
  Speaker 12: had so far.
• 13:57
  Speaker 13: You know, I think, like I said, just the that
• 14:00
  Speaker 13: feeling of coming together and fighting for each other. And
• 14:03
  Speaker 13: I mean, that's that's something that's hard to put your
• 14:05
  Speaker 13: finger on, but you can feel, you can feel it,
• 14:07
  Speaker 13: and and that we are coming together as a team.
• 14:10
  Speaker 13: So we got to continue to It's a long season.
• 14:12
  Speaker 13: There's gonna be some ebbs and flows of this season
• 14:14
  Speaker 13: and we got to continue to build on that. But man,
• 14:16
  Speaker 13: sitting in that locker room and on the sideline when
• 14:18
  Speaker 13: bad things happen and seeing how everyone comes together, we're
• 14:20
  Speaker 13: not dividing or divided.
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: You know, it's cool to see. So it makes you
• 14:25
  Speaker 8: feel good.
• 14:26
  Speaker 13: Like I said, if you can pull you know, you
• 14:28
  Speaker 13: can go out there and and and find a win
• 14:30
  Speaker 13: when you don't play great on offense, your defense has
• 14:32
  Speaker 13: your back and you find a way to go finish it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 8: It's it's a good feeling.
• 14:38
  Speaker 14: Yeah, So I just wanted to know what do you
• 14:40
  Speaker 14: think has changed? Obviously last year the last few times
• 14:45
  Speaker 14: you guys played it didn't go your way. So what
• 14:47
  Speaker 14: do you think has changed the most about the.
• 14:49
  Speaker 8: Team against Houston?
• 14:51
  Speaker 13: You're saying specifically, Yeah, I think a lot of things
• 14:55
  Speaker 13: have changed. Like I said today, I think just the
• 14:59
  Speaker 13: the readiness of our team being able to find a
• 15:01
  Speaker 13: way to finish the game. The toughness showed up. You know,
• 15:05
  Speaker 13: this is that's it's a really good team. That Houston's
• 15:06
  Speaker 13: a really good team, really good defense, they're physical. We
• 15:09
  Speaker 13: knew it was going to be a challenge for us,
• 15:10
  Speaker 13: and we never back down from it. You know, like
• 15:12
  Speaker 13: I said, didn't always go our way, but we kept
• 15:14
  Speaker 13: coming back and getting our opportunities, and we finally, you know,
• 15:17
  Speaker 13: hit the ones that mattered.
• 15:18
  Speaker 14: Trying to think we've I think we've touched a lot
• 15:21
  Speaker 14: on the negatives. But what are you the most proud
• 15:23
  Speaker 14: of after that game?
• 15:24
  Speaker 13: Just the just the toughness of our team being able
• 15:27
  Speaker 13: to go finish it. You know, when you find a
• 15:29
  Speaker 13: way to win games like that, and honestly sometimes feels
• 15:33
  Speaker 13: better than when everything goes right, just because it says
• 15:36
  Speaker 13: a lot about your team and being able to finish
• 15:38
  Speaker 13: and not you know, shell up when things aren't going well,
• 15:41
  Speaker 13: but being able to find.
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: A way to win it.
• 15:44
  Speaker 15: Did it feel like the run got away from you guys?
• 15:46
  Speaker 15: Did they really present the biggest challenge to running the
• 15:49
  Speaker 15: ball so far in three games? How would you evaluate
• 15:51
  Speaker 15: that part of the offense.
• 15:53
  Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, we'll have to watch it and kind
• 15:55
  Speaker 13: of see, but yeah, like I said, their physical group
• 15:58
  Speaker 13: on defense, they do a nice job. They can be
• 16:01
  Speaker 13: it can be a challenge to run the ball on them.
• 16:03
  Speaker 13: You know, it felt like they had a good scheme
• 16:05
  Speaker 13: to handle the run. We ran the ball so well in.
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: The first two weeks.
• 16:08
  Speaker 13: I felt like they obviously emphasized that and had a
• 16:11
  Speaker 13: good plan for us, And there were still some some
• 16:14
  Speaker 13: things there that I think that we can make some
• 16:15
  Speaker 13: corrections and do better and run the ball better. But
• 16:18
  Speaker 13: in the passing game, we had a lot of opportunities
• 16:20
  Speaker 13: and didn't take advantage of all those. So you know,
• 16:23
  Speaker 13: you're not gonna be able to always play the game
• 16:25
  Speaker 13: the way you want to every game you got to
• 16:27
  Speaker 13: you gotta adjust and adapt and find a way to
• 16:29
  Speaker 13: make those plays. I know, as a quarterback, we got
• 16:30
  Speaker 13: to do a better job of just distributing the ball
• 16:33
  Speaker 13: and staying on schedule.
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: You know, we got behind the chains a lot today.
• 16:35
  Speaker 8: So yeah, and then.
• 16:37
  Speaker 15: We saw a little bit of emotion from you when
• 16:39
  Speaker 15: Diami goes down, just emotionally. What does it mean to
• 16:42
  Speaker 15: beat the Houston Texans.
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: It means a lot. It means a lot.
• 16:46
  Speaker 13: I don't think it's a secret that we don't like
• 16:47
  Speaker 13: each other. So it was a fun game for us
• 16:50
  Speaker 13: and find a way.
• 16:51
  Speaker 8: To do it.
• 16:52
  Speaker 13: Like I said, we're gonna see him again. So that's
• 16:54
  Speaker 13: all I really have to say right now. But it
• 16:56
  Speaker 13: felt good as you guys can.
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: Tell you're scramble to get that first down today and
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: took a hit.
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: At the end of it.
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: Did that kind of feel good? Was that like a
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: mini payback? I guess in a.
• 17:08
  Speaker 13: Way, not necessarily, you know, I'm so. I was just
• 17:12
  Speaker 13: so locked into the moment of the game, like it
• 17:14
  Speaker 13: was such a big drive. You know, we had to
• 17:16
  Speaker 13: we had to go get points. We had to go
• 17:18
  Speaker 13: get points to win the game or tied up there,
• 17:20
  Speaker 13: So third down just making to play with my legs
• 17:22
  Speaker 13: and trying to not get two I guess emotional and
• 17:27
  Speaker 13: kind of get out of the right headspace there because
• 17:29
  Speaker 13: you got you see the other plays we had to
• 17:31
  Speaker 13: make to end up finishing the drive to go score.
• 17:33
  Speaker 13: We were only on the what minus forty there, Like
• 17:35
  Speaker 13: we still had some work to do to go win
• 17:37
  Speaker 13: the game. But yeah, it felt felt good to be
• 17:39
  Speaker 13: able to use my legs and make a play when
• 17:42
  Speaker 13: we needed it.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Same same thing about the chippiness. How much of that
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: was carryover from last year?
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: Do you think?
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: I mean the chipness on the sideline you had to
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: get pulled out of. I think Gardner Johnson there at
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: one point to how much of that was carry over
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: from last year.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: How much is it?
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: How good is it that everybody seemed to have your back?
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: It's good, it's a good feeling. I think a little.
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: I don't.
• 18:03
  Speaker 13: I think it's some of it. Obviously, it's a division game.
• 18:06
  Speaker 13: Like I just said, we just we don't like each other.
• 18:08
  Speaker 13: We don't like any of our division opponents, so it's
• 18:11
  Speaker 13: not necessarily uncommon in that respect.
• 18:14
  Speaker 8: But yeah, I just we're not gonna get bullied. You know.
• 18:17
  Speaker 13: It's a team that, uh, that's that's what I feel
• 18:20
  Speaker 13: like they want to do, and not saying that's the wrong,
• 18:22
  Speaker 13: but that's their mindset and it's not gonna happen to
• 18:25
  Speaker 13: this team.
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: So it was it was fun to be able to.
• 18:28
  Speaker 13: Punch back and stand up in those moments where it's like,
• 18:31
  Speaker 13: all right, you want to throw that punch, like we're here.
• 18:34
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Has this team been bullied way too often the last
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: several years.
• 18:39
  Speaker 13: I wouldn't put it that way, but I think that's
• 18:41
  Speaker 13: it's an emphasis for us of that we're gonna have
• 18:44
  Speaker 13: each other's back. For one, We're gonna play the right way.
• 18:46
  Speaker 13: You know, We're not gonna we're not gonna go past
• 18:48
  Speaker 13: the whistle. We're not gonna be dirty, but you know,
• 18:50
  Speaker 13: we got each other's back and no one's gonna bully
• 18:52
  Speaker 13: us and push us around. You know, that's a that's
• 18:53
  Speaker 13: a mindset for our team, and that's important. Thank y'all
• 18:57
  Speaker 13: appreciate it.
