00:00 A lot of guys touched the football and contributed.
00:03 And it was good, all around good day.
00:07 You were specifically pretty good against the Blitz today.
00:10 Did you anticipate the lose you're going to get
00:12 and the thing that you pull off quicker?
00:13 Well, the long one, the Ekler was a screen.
00:17 It was kind of a screen where we had a screen and a pass option.
00:22 And they just gave us a perfect look for it.
00:25 So that was a great heck of a call by Shane,
00:27 among many other great calls by Shane.
00:28 But we-- and then, yeah, a couple of looks we anticipated.
00:33 But then some of the other ones, it
00:35 was just get it to the guy that was hot.
00:37 Melvin on the swing was just with the hot read on that one.
00:39 And the guys up front did a heck of a job
00:41 of handling their front.
00:43 I got hit a few times.
00:44 That's part of it when you're going against that front.
00:46 But really only the one sack, which
00:48 was early on the third and long.
00:49 And it was, nothing's there.
00:51 Even if something-- there wasn't--
00:53 it was a--
00:53 I'd call it a coverage sack more than anything.
00:55 They may have came free a little sooner.
00:57 But I didn't have anywhere to throw it.
00:58 It was just eat it there.
01:00 It was good.
01:01 Obviously, the run, the start of the game--
01:03 I mean, the first drive was awesome.
01:04 We scored three plays.
01:05 And then we scored two plays on the--
01:07 right before the two minute.
01:08 And then get another opportunity there.
01:10 We scored 10 points in a minute, I think.
01:12 Or a minute and whatever it was.
01:14 A minute and 40.
01:15 So that was huge.
01:17 It was just a fun day.
01:19 A fun day.
01:20 Again, we've shown spurts of this this year.
01:23 I've thrown the ball the same way this year.
01:26 Just had some of the critical turnovers
01:28 and some other misses.
01:30 But we've shown spurts of this.
01:33 We just were more consistent today
01:34 and didn't have the negative plays.
01:37 And obviously, the explosive plays helped.
01:40 And the defense was great.
01:41 So it was a solid day.
