00:00 We play off one another, like I always say.
00:02 He make the play, I make the play, so it's like our little thing.
00:05 So that kind of get us turned out that way.
00:08 Once we, both of us make the plays and everybody else start making plays,
00:12 you see the offense, we got that spark that we need.
00:15 It shows, I feel like we did a great job with that.
00:20 Me and George had a great year, the whole team had a great year.
00:23 You know what I'm saying?
00:25 Like I said, it's just that spark and that thing that me and George did.
00:29 >> Tiante, why did you go offense won the fourth and
00:31 how do you carry that over into this one?
00:34 >> Starting fast, knowing the game plan, knowing who we're going against.
00:39 When you get out there, not overthinking it,
00:41 being yourself out there at the end of the day.
00:43 That's really what it's all about, being yourself and making those plays.
00:46 Coach Teague always talked about being an A player.
00:49 You need those A players to step up and that's what the players did on Sunday.
00:55 Seeing the big players that we need to turn the game around.
00:59 >> Tiante, sometimes you overthink, not you personally, but
01:02 the offense overthink early on.
01:03 >> Thank you.
01:04 >> What is the reason for the slow start that you guys playing so
01:08 much different and better than them?
01:10 >> Like Coach Teague said, how you come off that bus, walk into the stadium.
01:14 That mindset was, I wanna say it's a problem.
01:19 We ain't allowed, we're not perfect.
01:22 It's not like we trying to come out there and not start fast.
01:25 When you hear the play or whatever it is out there, it's just how bad you want it.
01:32 We want it bad.
01:33 Sometimes, it may not seem like we do, but we do.
01:37 So that's never good.
01:40 We just gotta put more effort in.
01:42 Coming out and starting fast.
01:44 We want it, we just keep winning.
