  Speaker 3: the balls find anymore and you're able to break up
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: some passes. Do the things you can do. Uh.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't really be looking for stats.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: I'm not a Chase stats type of dude. I make
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: the players that come to me, and then the ones
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: that don't. I try to go over there and help
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: help my guys make the player as well. So I'm
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: really gonna be paying attention to the stats and stuff.
• 1:12

• 1:14
  Speaker 2: in yourself? Uh? And he ran a return route, we
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: got a deflection and then we got a pick. So
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: that's really about it.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Did you have that idea that that route was coming?
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Nah? I just I played. I just kept my eyes
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: on my man and then he ran it.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: So well, what was your view of of Gino's touchdown
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: in and when he took off?
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Could you tell that he was gonna score? Just w
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: What was your perspective on that? Uh? I just know
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: he scored, that's all that matter. So but now when
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: I seen it strike out running I did. I thought
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: one of the guys was gonna come up there, man,
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: But I be I mean, playing that position knowing you
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: can't come up he man, you just gotta respect it.

  Speaker 2: it's not surprising. But when you got nest men up.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: That's why we draft guys every year. We signed guys.
