00:00 the one high, how nice is it to your quarterback to get making those post snap
00:04 reads? >> That's the design of it.
00:06 So again, we try to put our best guys in the spots and
00:09 then based on what the defense does, the ball finds our guys.
00:12 And again, just the execution and really being able to really test Mike's legs out
00:17 on that play right there.
00:19 And he showed he could finish and what a fantastic dive right there to have
00:23 the presence of mind to keep that foot in bounds.
00:25 I mean, how close was it that they didn't even call it a touchdown?
00:28 But yeah, we were thrilled about that.
00:31 >> What about being able to get Chris Godwin a goal in there too,
00:34 because he was a guy we really didn't see targeted in that game.
00:36 We know he's dealing with a neck injury and that can weigh on guys.
00:39 So for him to be able to make an impact,
00:40 a timely impact when he did with that trip play.
00:43 >> What a huge reminder for me, right?
00:44 The guy's just magic with the ball.
00:46 And so I have to do a better job.
00:48 I come up here and say it every week.
00:50 And I'm not satisfied with how we're using Chris in our offense.
00:54 He's a huge part of what we do.
00:57 And again, just speaking to that point,
01:00 just a lot of the ways we get the ball quick and
01:03 touches has been going a lot to Trey and to DT.
01:08 And so some of those things that are designed to them like Chris,
01:12 he's averaging about ten yards when we get him the ball behind the line of
01:16 scrimmage on things that he's done well in the past.
01:18 So I gotta be more aware of spreading those types of touches out,
01:23 because he does have such a knack with the ball after the catch.
01:25 >> Where do you fall on the assertion that Todd Bowles had that the reason he had
01:30 had zero catches is because he was in and out of the game because he was nicked up?
01:36 >> Well, I mean, just the numbers show like 82% of the snaps, that's a full load.
01:41 I think we had reinforcements ready because he was on the injury reports
01:45 working through some things throughout the week.
01:48 And so we had David Moore, Ryan Miller ready, prepared and
01:51 ready to go to just see what happened.
01:53 But to Chris's credit, he just he prepared his body, he prepared his mind right.
01:57 He stayed focused and engaged throughout the practices as we were working some of
02:01 those things and then it's just a stud on game day and battled through it.
02:06 And still, he had the one opportunity to make a play and he did.
02:10 So again, just back to my point, knowing that I can trust that
02:14 throughout the season that he'll work through things and
02:16 still be available for us in a big way as we need him.
