Indianapolis Colts head coach discusses how important it is that his team has found different ways to win games heading into the Bye week.
Transcript
00:00 Yeah, that's a good question.
00:01 I think, you know, you start playing your best football
00:03 in November and December and you start climbing,
00:05 you know, you kind of find out about teams late,
00:06 you know, second half of the season.
00:09 So, to be 2-0 and finding different ways to win it,
00:11 our defense has obviously stepped up the last two weeks
00:14 in Carolina and then now here against the Patriots.
00:17 But the big thing is just playing that complementary
00:18 football, you know, back and forth going forward
00:21 so we can be at our best coming off the bye.
00:24 That's huge. I mean, it's huge.
00:25 You get to 500 before the bye,
00:27 you know, get these guys a week off, get them some rest,
00:29 and then come back, you know, and hit the ground running.
00:31 We got Tampa Bay, you know, coming back in our place
00:34 in a couple weeks, so we're looking forward to it.
00:37 I think the biggest thing, our guys, you know,
00:39 they found a way, and it's really just,
00:41 you know, staying focused on the sideline
00:43 and just keeping them juiced up and saying,
00:45 like, "Hey, let's go make another play."
00:46 And the guys were playing awesome on defense,
00:49 you know, and then to get the turnover
00:50 right there at the end to win it was huge.
00:54 In the locker room, it was just, "Hey, get healthy,
00:55 you know, and let's go make a run at this thing."
00:57 We got seven games left.
00:59 We're right in the thick of it, and let's play our best football
01:01 in November and December going forward.
01:03 Oh, yeah, no, it's been awesome to come over here
01:05 and experience this.
01:06 This is my third time doing international games,
01:09 and it was great.
01:11 Obviously, Frankfurt and Germany and everything
01:12 was great hosts for us, and we really enjoyed it.
01:16 Yeah, it was great.
