00:00What was working in the run game for you guys?

00:10Just a bunch of explosive plays there for everybody.

00:12Yeah, we wanted to establish the run,

00:13and we felt like we could move bodies up front

00:16and run through some arm tackles, and we did that tonight.

00:19Ray, you're on the same arm.

00:20John, I'm on Draft2US.

00:22This is your first time in New Jersey and on the East Coast.

01:01Just calm.

01:02You know, calm and poise within a play, right?

01:05It's hard to go battle for a 50-50 ball

01:07and put yourself in a situation that you're going to create a penalty,

01:10and he's done a good job of that.

01:11So, let's get up.
