00:00Man, Justin is, you know, as I've gotten to know him, man,
00:03he is a real steady Eddie, man.
00:06He's not overly talkative, man,
00:07but he's got a steady, strong demeanor.
00:10And just being in stadium with the man,
00:12some of the things that I've seen through team development
00:14were confirmed.
00:15It's just good to be able to communicate with a guy
00:18when things get thick and you see the clear eyes,
00:21he's there, he's solid as a rock.
00:23And I think his play and thus our play
00:27is kind of reflective of that.
00:28If Justin's performance today affect Russell's status
00:31as QB1 as a starter?
00:32And you can come ask me that question on Tuesday.
00:35I mean, to be honest, I'm not even worried about that.
00:37You know, I just came in wanting a win
00:39and I'm glad that we're leaving here with a win.
00:41So in terms of who's starting, who's not,
00:43all I want to do is win at the end of the day.
00:44So, yeah, I'm really not even going to get into all of that.
00:49You know, who I want to start at the end of the day.
00:52I came here to win no matter if I was going to throw
00:55for 300 yards, 100 yards, no yards,
00:58I came in to win.
00:59So that's the only focus I have.
