00:10 I think for the most part we showed we were, except until the end of the game.
00:23 But focus on finishing better and finishing out the game when it counts and
00:27 when the drive comes up, making that big play when it matters.
00:31 But I mean, yeah, we're definitely excited for this opportunity.
00:33 The Vikings have been playing great past few weeks.
00:38 So definitely excited for
00:39 the opportunity we get to have on Monday night and get to go out there and ball out.
00:43 So that's just what the Lions do.
00:45 They play hard.
00:46 We knew that coming in that week, that the kind of effort and
00:51 toughness and grit that they play with, their head coach preaches that.
00:56 So we kind of knew it was gonna be that kind of game.
00:58 But I was just talking to the ref and just asked, telling him, yo,
01:02 just watch out, heads up for a late hit or something like that.
01:06 But I guess I didn't get any, so keep playing ball and control what I can.
01:10 >> A little bit sore.
01:11 >> A little bit sore, but got me through.
01:13 But I'll be good to go.
01:15 I felt like we made too many mental mistakes last time we played them.
01:18 We're better than that.
01:20 We're better than what we put on tape that game.
01:21 So putting our best foot forward, making sure we're on our pre's and
01:25 Q's each and every play, locked in and getting the ball out fast when we need to,
01:29 when they do bring that pressure.
01:30 So it's gonna be key.
01:32 And of course, when they do bring pressure, the O-line picking it up.
01:35 So everything starts up front.
01:37 And once we get the protection and everything together, then we'll be good.
01:42 >> If they bring all out, yeah, I mean, you really don't have anywhere to go cuz
01:45 you're outnumbered in protection.
01:46 So that's when you gotta get the ball out quick.
01:48 So that's how you combat that.
01:50 But yeah, when they bring their all out, cover zero pressure, then, I mean, yeah,
01:52 you're not gonna, unless you're just completely out athlete.
01:55 The D in, set them up somewhere, one way or the other, but not really looking.
02:01 Cover zero, that's not really the answer to beat that.
02:03 It's try to scramble and stuff around.
02:04 You just wanna get the ball out quick and let the playmakers make plays and work.
