  Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, just yeah, it's it's awesome, you know,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: two weeks in a row. I think that's the that's
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the coolest thing, is just big win last week and
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: to see that same focus and intensity and preparation this week. Um,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I think that's the sign obviously that we're heading in
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: the right in the right direction. And should I keep
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: doing that weekend week out? Um, Obviously every week is
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: gonna present new challenges and um, he's gotta come ready
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: to play. And we did that today and it was awesome.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: We're gonna enjoy it the rest of the day, and
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: like we said last week, tomorrow we're moving on. What
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: does this wind say about this team nationally or to
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: the rest of the NFL. I mean, obviously, just I
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: think the way we've we've played, you can't deny that
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: we're that we're a really good team. Um. But at
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: the end of the day, doesn't it doesn't really matter
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: what what it says about us. We know who we are.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Our our only goal on Sundays ago win the game,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: and what other people think about it doesn't really matter.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Every week, we're gonna prepare the same way. We're gonna
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: be ready to play and and we got a bunch
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: of competitors. It's it's been a lot of fun. Trevor Mos.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Impressive part to you that second half. I mean you
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: guys were up six and seemed to really put your
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: foot on the throat and just take control. Yeah. I
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: think the way the first half went, you know, we
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: were we were kind of finding our groove offensively, We're
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: moving the ball well, but stalling out a little bit
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: in the red zone, just trying to figure out kind
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: of what they were doing. They do, They do some
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: good stuff. Obviously they have a bunch of good players too,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: so that that helps. But um, we you know, we
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: had we had to take some time to kind of
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: figure it out and settle in, and our defense did
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: a great job of holding up and really just not
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: giving up anything. So the game stayed tight for a
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: little bit. Even in the second half. They came out
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: I think they um they scored or kicked a field
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: goal one of the two and then just to see
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: our offense respond and put together I think what three
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: scoring drives in a row. Uh, it says a lot
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: about us. And then our defense on the flip side
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: to stop them all those other times. I mean, it
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: was it was awesome. We played a complete game and UM,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: to stack two weeks is big for us. What was
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the confidence level life on? Feel the same throughout? Wasn't
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: just efficient, thing is gonna get done. Yeah. I think
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: our confidence has been really high, honestly the whole season,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: every game we played in. Obviously there's been times where
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: we could played better, but I think our confidence has
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: always been really high. And that's and you see that
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: on the field, and the confidence that the coaches having
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: us too. You know, went forward on fourth down multiple times.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Didn't get one of them early, but that's all right.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Still the same plan, stay aggressive, UM and the guys
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: handled it really well. A knot punch and the lift
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: was that Robinson's touchdown. Oh, it's great. I mean, that's
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: that's something we talk about, is being able to do that,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: especially at that point in the game when you know
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: you've kind of controlled the clock, you have the lead.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: We're not in four minute because it's still early in
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the second half, but just being able to impose your
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: will no matter what the box count is. You know,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: they got more hats in there than we do, but
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: just being able to pound the ball, and I think
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: that was fourth down. I mean, that's that's just a
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: huge play. Maybe they already happened, Is it to the
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: point now or on fourth and one like that, you
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: don't even a question with that guy is gonna go
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: for Yeah, I think it depends. It depends where we're at,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: you know. I think we had a fourth and one
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: or fourth and two backed up a little bit. We
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: ended up putting it um, So I think he does
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: a good job of managing it. And we have every
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: week we have a great plan. So we have a
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: lot of confidence in in the coaches and they have
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in us to execute it. So
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I think that is what you see that twofold UM confidence.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: So it's been it's been great and UM just continuing
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to trust each other as the biggest thing. Marvin's touchdown
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: catch in the back of the end zone, Yeah, it
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: was awesome. You know, something we kind of we kind
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: of planned in the second half we got back down,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: there was something we want We wanted to try to
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: attack that area and Marvin just does a great job
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: and we've seen it last year and this year as well,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: just going up and making a play, and I think
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: that's that's really where he's at his best is just
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: to go make the play. Doesn't matter what the coverage is,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: who's covering him, He's gonna go make the play. And
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I got a lot of faith in him, and it
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: was cool to be able to get him one. Obviously,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: he's just I mean, he's just such a team player.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Every week, these these past three weeks, he's had to
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: block a lot in the run game, hasn't had a
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: ton of touches, but just comes to work every day happy.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: You know, he's as happy as anyone when we win.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: And then to be able to get him, you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: touch down there at the end, that was that was
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: awesome and just the group we have is awesome. Talked
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year about cutting out turnovers,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: and you had one interception in three weeks, so your
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: progress on that progress's good. Really needs to say anything else,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: And that's what you see. You know, that coupled with
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: how well our defense is playing, it's both. But I
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: mean that's why we've you know, we're two in one
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: and had a chance to win the first one, you know,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: so that's we're putting ourselves in a position to win.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: And last two weeks have just been closing out games,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: and that's where you want to be a concern your
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: seven field goals in the first half with their difference
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: in the second half. On that you said, was there
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a concern? Yeah, yeah, definitely. You know, when you're inside
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the tent and you settle for a couple of field goals,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: that's not ideal. And that was something I talked about,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: just kind of having to figure out settle in what
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: do we want to do in the red zone based
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: on what they're showing us. You know, they do a
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: good job of showing a lot of different looks and
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: you gotta figure out what they're gonna do that game
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: because they change it up week to week. So that's
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: always kind of the battle, and I think we did
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: a good job responding. Obviously, you want to make those
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: touchdowns and that will be big moving forward, and that's
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: that's one thing we can we can grow one area
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: we can grow in, so we'll look at it and improve.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: But uh, like we said, to be able to go
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: finish in the second half, especially that one drive I
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: think when I ended up having a QB sneak on
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: the fourth and goal or fourth and one or fourth
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and inches and then being able to finish with points there.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: That was that was huge. Do you see Justin Herbert
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: after the game? I didn't. I was looking for him. Um,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I kind of went over there late, so I didn't.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: I didn't see him. But I wish wish that guy
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the best. He's a he's a great player, you know. Obviously,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I'm sure he's playing through some pain today and um
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: hat hats hats off to him. He's he's a great player.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: First road win in your tent start eight man and
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: got his first road win and his tent start against
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: a Charger two. That's pretty cool. That's interesting though. Actually yeah, no,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I mean it's it's you know, to be able to,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: like we said, have a have a win like this
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: on the road. It's just it's awesome. So I can
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: talk to you guys about this team has to learn
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: how to win. Where are you in that process after
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: these two games? Do you have it? Or is that
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: that's something that just keeps Yeah? I think I think
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: you keep building it. You know, I think we've we've
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: shown that we have the ability when we have a
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: lead to just keep our foot on the gas and
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: finish the game. And that's that's huge and and and
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: being a really good team. Uh, the next challenges are
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: when the game comes down down to the wire, let's
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: go finish and get a win. So that'll be you know,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: every week there's a possibility that we all know how
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: the NFL works, most games are super close, so always
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: prepared for that. And I think that's kind of the
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: next step. And for us, just keep preparing the same
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: way because obviously our preparation is paying off for us.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Good all right, thank you all.
