00:00Coach, granted they put up some passing numbers, but how important was it for you guys to make
00:11them sort of one-dimensional by stopping the run and maybe putting a lot of pressure on
00:15their quarterback, which led to some mistakes?
00:16Yeah, I mean, you know, I think it's huge when you can take away a team's strength.
00:20I think they've been able to run the ball really well this season, and for us to be
00:23able to stop it was big.
00:25But, you know, obviously we want to go back and clean up some of the passing attack that
00:28they had.
00:28You know, their quarterback's special.
00:29They have some wideouts that made some big-time plays today, contested catches.
00:33It was a physical game from that standpoint.
00:35They were certainly going to attack the ball.
00:37Our guys were trying to battle and fight and keep them from getting the ball, and we can
00:40go improve that and get better in that area and then just go evaluate it.
00:43But, you know, proud that we can, you know, like I said, coming in here rushing for 180
00:47yards and then rushing for 52, I think tells a big story.
00:51In the middle, Matt.
00:54We've always talked about guys being ready for their moment.
00:56What did you see this week, probably the last few weeks with Fox, so that he would get
01:01ready, get himself ready to go?
01:02And he only played 33 snaps before today, and you didn't show it.
01:06Yeah, no.
01:07I mean, he prepared really well this week.
01:09Our coaches have a lot of confidence in him.
01:11And, you know, again, a guy being ready for that, that means he did a lot of work until
01:15he got that opportunity, too.
01:16Right?
01:16That doesn't just happen on accident.
01:19That's a guy that's working his tail off.
01:20You know, world rolled his ankle in the very first play of last game, right?
01:26And played the entire game.
01:27It tells you a little bit about his toughness, but it was, you know, severe enough that we
01:30felt like he was pretty limited today coming in and felt like he could go at moments.
01:34But Fox was ready and certainly have to watch the film and evaluate it, but thought he did
01:38some really good things today.
