00:10 >> Sheen has done a phenomenal job, outstanding job.
00:22 He's special in that phase.
00:24 I think he has five total career blocks in his career.
00:30 I think three of those were in his first five years.
00:34 And he has two so far in six games here.
00:39 So he's special.
00:40 I mean, we gotta credit the player on that.
00:43 What's happening is his teammates are doing a really good job helping him.
00:49 So i.e.
00:49 Dylan Cole is getting a great pushback on those along with Dexter,
00:56 our young rookie, Dom, Justin Jones, all those guys.
01:00 Brisk was really, really critical on that play.
01:04 Jaquan Brisker, he really knocked that thing back and he takes a lot of pride in
01:09 it and Tyreek was close off the edge.
01:11 So it's a part of our game that we wanna continue to grow and
01:16 it's a credit to those guys that they don't take plays off.
01:20 Some people take plays off on that play and
01:23 it was an extra point and he didn't take the play off.
01:26 So again, that one point could have been the difference if it would have come
01:31 down to it at the end of the game and that's the way we think and
01:34 that's the way we're gonna attack going forward.
01:37 And our defense really, they were juiced up about that cuz that was right
01:42 before the half, so we kinda fed on that going into the locker room and
01:47 the defense was outstanding.
01:49 It was discussed even before he got here, even before making the team.
01:54 So before acquiring him, we always liked that about him.
01:59 And then when we got a chance to get him, then we were super fired up and
02:02 we knew that, hey, if it worked out, then it could be good for us in the long run.
02:07 And you gotta give him credit.
02:08 I mean, he's taking that to the next level and
02:13 the guys around him deserve a lot of credit too.
02:15 So again, it's credit to the players.
02:18 They're the ones out there doing.
