00:00 - Yeah, I mean, I think we obviously converted,
00:02 you know, the fourth and one,
00:03 or we had to, I think,
00:05 Javante did a great job of running through the tackle
00:07 and getting that first down.
00:09 We were able to obtain a move of the ball.
00:11 We got another fourth down conversion,
00:14 you know, scramble, we got another fourth down.
00:16 You know, I think the biggest thing is the last play.
00:21 I could either put a, you know, hair a bit higher,
00:24 just 'cause I want to take a shot in the end zone.
00:26 At the end of the day, I can't take a sack there.
00:27 Got off of it.
00:29 And I saw Kroll, you know, and you trust your instincts.
00:31 You know, I've made a lot of those plays
00:33 as the past several games.
00:34 So I can't second guess,
00:36 but I think the biggest thing is,
00:37 if you don't love it, throw it away, get another play.
00:40 That'd be the best thing there.
00:42 And so, you know, the great thing is,
00:43 is we've got great confidence.
00:44 We've been able to capitalize on some big,
00:47 you know, fourth quarter touchdowns and big moments.
00:51 And so we're going to have to have some of those
00:52 down the stretch.
00:53 And I think every game,
00:55 as I tell you guys, has a history of its own.
00:57 I think that, you know,
00:59 I think the best thing that we can do
01:00 is prepare really well this week.
01:02 Have a great week.
01:03 This is obviously a division game.
01:04 This one matters a lot.
01:06 You know, winning matters
01:07 and just staying focused on us continuing.
01:10 You know, I think the other thing is this,
01:11 you know, I really believe this.
01:13 We've been five and one for the past six games.
01:17 We can't forget that too.
01:19 We can't forget that too.
01:19 We've got five games to go.
01:20 We've been five and one.
01:21 We've got a lot of confidence in this locker room
01:23 and who we are, what we're going to do
01:25 and how we can go about it.
01:26 And so I believe that's the team we are
01:29 of the past six games.
01:30 And I think we can even be even better.
01:31 And that's the best part about it.
01:33 Yeah, I think we've run the ball extremely well.
01:35 We've done some really good things.
01:37 We had short field.
01:38 A lot of these games we've won
01:39 because our defense has turned the ball over.
01:41 So I think those are good things.
01:43 I think the third down this past week,
01:45 we've got to be better.
01:46 We've got to convert and kind of find ways to convert,
01:49 you know, this and that.
01:50 And I think we're close on a few plays
01:52 and made it, you know, fourth and one a few times.
01:54 I think we're three for three on four downs,
01:56 but I think converting on those will be key.
01:59 This will be key this week,
02:00 you know, staying on the field and all that,
02:02 giving us a chance to capitalize on the red zone.
02:04 I think, you know, red zone wise,
02:06 I think that's got to be a continue,
02:08 our focus, scoring touchdowns down there and finding ways.
