00:00 >> That was an opportunity to see, to capture today.
00:04 We had so much respect for them and the way they started the season,
00:08 with the time they had in building up this team, winning in KC and
00:12 all that on the road, knowing that the stadium was gonna be perfect.
00:16 And their support, it was gonna be as hard as it could get.
00:22 And so the opportunity was just magnified in that regard.
00:26 I mean, all in all, it's a winning game and that's really important.
00:29 But for our young team, for our guys to understand what it is,
00:33 what we're talking about, believing in finishing, doing the stuff that we need to
00:37 do in this game, we do right all the way to the end of the game,
00:40 all the way to the end of the fourth quarter and all the way into OT.
00:44 It's just hard to measure how valuable that is for us.
00:47 There's so many guys that did great stuff today in this game.
00:52 I'm starting with the tackles.
00:54 There's a lot of people that wrote us off because they didn't think that Stone could
00:57 get it done and Jake could get it done, but they did.
01:00 They did a phenomenal job today.
01:02 They held up their end of it,
01:03 stepped up just like we asked guys to do, and came through in a huge way.
01:08 Gino had a spectacular day.
01:11 He hit the one crazy sack.
01:13 But other than that, he had a spectacular day and
01:17 that made us down the field in OT and win the game.
01:19 It was a great throwing.
01:21 But the most exquisite part of that last drive was the pass protection.
01:25 Gosh, he was just there, just hanging in the pocket when he had to, and
01:28 worked with the guys up front.
01:30 So it's not just the tackles, but
01:31 they were the guys that were on the stick today and they came through in a huge way.
01:35 Tyler Lockett had a phenomenal day today.
01:37 And as always, we've been watching him.
01:40 I just hope he can just keep playing forever,
01:42 cuz he continues to just make those spectacular plays.
01:44 The catch on the back four man zone, and then to get the pile on for the win,
01:48 walk off win.
01:49 This is Tyler, and he's what a phenomenal player.
01:55 And a leader that he is with us, and I'm so proud of him.
01:59 DK got popped really good early in the game, and
02:02 had to get checked out to get played.
02:03 And he just sucked it up and played.
02:05 And made some great catches down the stretch.
02:07 Big first down force open note, and he's hurting me, but
02:10 he just stuck it out and he's tough.
02:11 You can never ask a guy to be.
02:13 Kane played his heart out and didn't get many yards, I wouldn't think.
02:18 But he played his heart out.
02:19 You can't play any harder than he's playing.
02:21 With the way Zach came off the bench too, and we were in a really tough force.
