• 0:03
  Speaker 1: I thought that was an incredible football game today, so
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: hard fought, both teams, so close both teams, and the
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: game started differently than it ended, you know, And and
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: I was I thought the guys on the defensive side
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: of the ball just played about as good as we played,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: and at any time we lit it up in the
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: second half of pressure. Then to make a yard on
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: the turnover, you know that they got and kicked the
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: field goal. And other than that, those guys just gave
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: us every chance to keep in there, and we had
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: our opportunities. I liked the way we went about it.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: We had our shot, we were going to win. We
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: were trying to kick a field goal there. Somebody ask
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: about that we're going for the win all four downs
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: and thinking that we're going to get it, and man,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: we liked the calls that we had and we you know,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: it just we just didn't didn't execute well enough to
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: get it done. It was always, I mean, all the
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: red zone stuff that got us. We needed our touchdowns,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: so our numbers will look like crap there in the
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: red zone. But uh man, we were so close to
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: one of that football game, and you know, give them credit,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: they ung in there and got it, and uh, but
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: I love the way we played today. And so I mean,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, I know we got the penalties and we
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: had some stuff and there's always stuff to get better.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: But that's a freaking competitive group. Man. They fought their
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: ass off today both sides of the football, and and
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: uh so, I just it's gonna help us down the road.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: We're gonna keep playing really hard, keep playing tough, and
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: we're gonna make it harder on everybody we play with
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the red zones or any No, no, I don't film.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: We didn't get it. Sorry, defensive, what did anything change
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: that you guys were doing or was it just yeah,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: we we just we we hung tough on all so
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: many situations. You know, Joe Burrows is a hell of
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: quarterback and and uh he showed you. He showed you
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: in the right right off the bat, first couple of drives,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: he was just he was nails. Our guys tightened things down,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: We got a little bit more pressure on them, We
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: made the throws more challenged, and uh and our guys
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: just made it hard on them. I don't know how
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: many yards they had, but they they didn't have a
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: lot today. And uh, you know, I thought that we
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: just played the way we're playing. We played the game
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: plan that we had planned to going with and and uh,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I stayed with it all day long, and it worked
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: for us, and and we did a really good job
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: on third down in the second half. I think both sides
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: the ball third down was an improvement today, which is
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: a step in the right direction, not quite enough, but
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: step in the right direction for us. The last fourth
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: down they called timeout that you guys called time out.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, was there something you're kind of looking for
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: there or guess? Yeah, yeah, there was, And we had
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to do it, you know, and so I
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that we were really clear and
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: everybody knew exactly what we were trying to get done.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: And uh, you know, cause it was the you know,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: that was the play. You know, so you love the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: way you play, you still went to do You're supposed said,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: get more frustrators and something you kind of make it
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: more frustrating, of course, Yeah, it sure it does, because
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: it was there. That was a game to win, you know,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: right there, and and uh, you know, we come out
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: here on the road, their crowd going crazy, and we're
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: right there, you know, we're all you know, inside of
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: ten a bunch of times to win the game, and
• 3:07

• 3:10
  Speaker 1: whole game? Yeah, it was great that he finally made
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: it through, you know, and I'm really happy for him.
