00:10 >> What do you think?
00:16 What?
00:16 >> What do you think of the results of their?
00:19 >> Our players?
00:19 >> Yeah.
00:20 >> Yeah, I mean, they're confident, right?
00:21 They're confident cuz we've done it not just one game.
00:23 We've done it for a couple years now with the same guys.
00:27 But I do think that there's been big stops and those big wins that set us up.
00:31 Yeah, we had to go to length of the field, but getting a stop on third down and
00:36 forcing the punt in the fourth quarter, that was huge.
00:39 Because we had a three point lead there.
00:41 So it's team football.
00:43 It's guys knowing that if you just keep playing,
00:46 we're gonna make that play on both sides of the ball.
00:48 But offensively, there's certainly a lot of confidence that you can hit down the
00:53 field, you can hit sideline to sideline.
00:55 And as we saw tonight with DJ around football, we can hit him with the run too.
00:59 >> This is really four games in a row now that the defense has come up with
01:02 a big stop late.
01:03 What does it say about the unit to be able to be resilient and
01:06 rise to the occasion in the crunch time?
01:07 >> Yeah, no, there's something to be said about that.
01:09 Just having some calls ready at those times and
01:15 the guys executing and just continue to come.
01:18 And we've caused some problems there in the fourth quarter for teams.
01:23 And like you said, it's just about the fight that our guys have.
