00:00Yeah, it starts with our office line like the way they control the line of scrimmage
00:04was awesome.
00:05Right?
00:06And then Joe, he stepped up big time for us.
00:09We needed him to run the ball, he did.
00:11They knew it was run, we knew it was run, and he still made the play.
00:15So man, just excited to have him on our side.
00:18We've seen it all training camp and it was exciting to see him do it here his first game.
00:23I'm glad that, you know, me and Steph was able to compliment each other in all game
00:28and we, we was on it.
00:29We was on it in each other's face like, bro, like, let's do this.
00:32You know what I'm saying?
00:33And you can just tell the passion you see from me, Steph, and, you know, guys like CJ.

01:02You know, it's just evident, like with Steph becoming a captain, with Joe also being on
01:09the leadership council, like those guys are leaders as well.
01:12So it's just very valuable, not only on the field, but off the field.
01:16So I'm going to do whatever I can to, you know, one, be a leader and, you know, to be
01:21the best player that I know that I'm able to be, man.
01:23And just try to keep on building with this momentum that we have.
