00:00 I didn't watch any of the Buffalo game. I watched some of it this morning though.
00:03 And we know this is a good team. We played them last year and know they're a good team.
00:08 There's really sound, fundamental defense and it'll be a big challenge for us.
00:12 How much of a relief was it to know that you guys were going to the playoffs before it got to Sunday night football?
00:17 A big relief. It was nice. We were able to go to bed at a decent time and not have to stay up and stress over that game.
00:23 It was just good to know we're in. It's been six years in this league for me now and my first time in the playoffs.
00:30 It's a lot. I'm excited, we're excited and can't wait for this opportunity.
00:34 How do you describe the feeling? The fact that a couple weeks ago things weren't looking too great after the Colts game.
00:40 Now you guys have fought and fought your way back and you're in the playoffs.
00:44 This game is crazy. The highs and lows in the season are so dramatic.
00:50 Five weeks ago it felt like the world was ending and here we are with a chance to go on and play our way back.
00:58 I know it's been a while here in Pittsburgh that we've had a playoff win and we're doing everything we can to get it done this week.
01:04 Mason wants to keep it your way going into the playoffs.
01:08 I think we've had this recipe for the last few weeks now, getting the run game going.
01:13 We've done some shots and stuff. We've seen a third man for the most part.
01:18 That's the only thing that's a recipe we've been able to execute. We do execute how it works.
01:24 Going forward that will still be the recipe.
01:27 Given the circumstances, how bad the weather could be, playing the last couple of games,
01:32 is it possible for us to see Dawn again in the passing game?
01:38 Can we really light it up to the very end of the circle?
01:40 Yeah, I know. That's just this time of the year.
01:44 I wrote a playoff game at Buffalo. I didn't expect it to be sunny and 75.
01:50 It's all about playoff football.
01:55 We're all going to be a part of it. We'll all take it home as well as they did.
