Transcript
00:00With the players that we have in this locker room, you always feel like it's going to happen.
00:02There's never a doubt.
00:04The stadium's starting to clear out a little bit, and I'm sitting there like,
00:07we still have a chance at this thing.
00:08I'm looking at the clock like, all right, we're down 12.
00:10There's about six and a half minutes to go.
00:11We go down and score before the two-minute.
00:13We have three timeouts.
00:14There's plenty of opportunity for us to go out there and win this game.
00:18So, I mean, I get it, but there's always a chance when you look back there
00:24and you see number nine at quarterback and the talent that we have on this offense.
00:28I think it was the second down play to you in the end zone.
00:31Was that a choice route where you could have ducked under the DB?
00:34It was a play that because of personnel and stuff, normally that's T running that.
00:40So then I went and moved to T spot.
00:43I felt the corner heavy inside.
00:45I knew I couldn't.
00:47I'm supposed to cross his face.
00:50I didn't.
00:52I learned that one on the sideline.
00:54It is what it is.
00:55There's no excuse for it, things like that.
00:57I was just trying to make a play.
01:00But, yeah, it is what it is.
01:02How big of a challenge is it being down Jamar and T and trying to complete that comeback?
01:08Yeah, I mean, listen, this summer in two-minute we had the same thing in training camp.
01:14Jamar and T weren't practicing.
01:15We did a two-minute trail.
01:16It was me and Tanner and Mitch and maybe it was Dante, maybe it was Dre.
01:21I think it was Dre.
01:24We practice different situations and we know things pop up.
01:27But there's a lot of talent that doesn't get a lot of opportunities throughout the course of the season because
01:35of how incredible Jamar and T are.
01:37So when they go down and God step up, you look at Dante, you look at Mitch.
01:42Mitch wasn't here this time last week and he's out there making plays to get us down the field with
01:46a chance to win the game.
01:47So it's a credit to those players and it's a credit to Troy and it's a credit to James Casey
01:53and it's a credit to Zach and Pitch and Brad and those guys getting those guys right in those situations.
01:58Because we got a chance to go win the game and you look in the huddle and that's not who
02:03ran out when they announced the starting lineups.
02:05It was a whole different personnel grouping.
02:07So I like what we have in this locker room.
02:10I know we're 2-2 and everybody's going to act like the world's falling, but I really like what we
02:14got.
02:14I think it all works itself out.
02:17It's early right now.
