00:00Yeah, we got, you know, I think we were better on third down.
00:12You know, we did a better job in the run game,
00:13but the third down defense is what I'd really point towards.
00:16We just, we kind of settled in there a little bit.
00:19We thought we had some opportunities with a couple of the calls early in the game
00:21to get off the field.
00:22We didn't make the play, but give credit to the coaches and the guys.
00:26You know, they were talking, you know, about those adjustments
00:28and then three points the rest of the way out was huge.
00:35Yeah, it was, you know, it was good for him to step up.

00:45he's been a little bit rusty coming back.
00:46He certainly made some plays, but he's been a little rusty too.
00:48And now he's starting to get a couple of good practice weeks under his belt
00:52and, you know, played a really consistent game.
00:54And it's important for us.
00:55He's an important part of our offense and our team.
00:58And, you know, certainly made us, you know,
01:00I think a little bit more versatile tonight.
