uh gritty very gritty game uh super proud of the guys for defensively getting it done all night defensively getting it done when it need to be done yeah I mean it's it's something we prepare for so uh it's not new to us um it's obviously high stress moment High emotional moment but you know we practice them all week long so we were just ready to go out there and execute you know it's uh it's it's different than another play but it's not different than another play we just everybody's out there going to execute their job they know fourth Down's important uh but yeah uh no yeah that that play was drawn up from the beginning of the week uh it's great play call by coach once he called it in I was like oh this is going to be good got him in man like zero Blitz basically sent the house and we knew we can get the back on the edge with the little speed option so miles did a great job and nothing like 37 yards on fourth and one we don't there's no special like Tom and Jerry name I'll tell you that much uh nothing crazy it's just something stupid that you guys wouldn't even care to know yeah yeah well when you got guys like five on the field you can always be confident in what the offense is going to do so um I think we just lean on each other it speaks a lot to the culture of us of our team is that we could have a tough outing in the first half only be down two feel like we played bad and then come back in the second half and play good enough to walk away with the win yeah it's really nice to have a defense like that that goes out there flies around and makes plays all the way place and what I love about events is what I love about our defense is it can be any given any given guy on any given play uh and they made a play there and got us the ball back which was huge yeah we we didn't really give them too much help tonight so um they just had to they kind of had to put in overtime today um and it's always good we can have guys where we can lean on like that because offense is not always easy to go out there and put points up but when you got guys like that and you know you can get the ball back it's it kind of like make the mistakes that you that you have okay we get another chance to go out here and and write our wrongs that's probably like a top five play yeah for for me for sure um yeah I was just just wanted to make a play for the for the team um and so uh I just felt I just felt that the opportunity was there and uh I just kind of didn't want to be denied going down uh yeah I think that they came out uh in the first quarter especially and threw some coverages at us that was like the super small percentage of what the stuff they do and so not that we weren't prepared for it but it was a little different um and then they kind of fell back as the game went on they kind of fell back into the base defense and that's where we started find success in the second half is like we knew we knew what defense we're going to go against in this in that third and fourth quarter they're going to fall back on what they know and and we I feel like we knew it based on fil through the the week um but yeah props to them and their DC for coming out and change up the looks uh in the first quarter and making it tough on us early shoot that's our team I mean any given guy in any given moment somebody asked me who my favorite Sher was the guy who's open it's the guy's going to make plays and that's so many guys on on our team like last week Chase went for over 100 this week Darius was 60 Tava with 42 receiving yards and a touchdown like it's a guy it's any given guy in any given moment how many guys do we have in the rushing stat like seven how many guys in the receiving stat like nine or 10 like that's just our team I feel like that everybody stepped up and playing at a different level this year and and it's awesome to be able to like a guy like LJ goes down and and eni can come in and make plays like ran for a touchdown made a bunch of plays in The Run game runs hard and physical and I tell you what the guys we believe in Eno like he might not be the guy on the poster but he's going to be guy who going to get at the end of the day when his name called yeah I just kind of I just kind of learned about JJ he's he's a tough guy he's not gonna get it down U I came to the sideline told him hey we got everything we want right here we just got to settle down we go to we got to play our game and he did that um he executed a great drive at the end and to get us down there um and then ultimately he he made the decision to go down play uh at the at go line that I felt like I should have made even though it was a low contact I feel like I can make that play and that's just the trust that that he has in me so next time he do it I'm make it was anywhere near
