00:00That's traded for him nine days ago.

00:02When I say that, how crazy is that, that he had that kind of...

00:04It's crazy.

00:05You know, he's definitely brought a spark to this team,

00:08and he's playing at a really high level.

00:09So, I appreciate him and, you know, the front office

00:14trying to do everything they can to make this team successful.

00:17So, you know, that feels good.

00:19But from another standpoint, he's doing a really good job.

00:24He's giving the ball to playmakers,

00:26and when you're doing that, you get results like this.

00:29I really felt like we left a lot out there, too,

00:31so it could have been a lot better.

00:32But, you know, we'll watch the film get better

00:34and execute better next week, for sure.

00:37I called this a must-win going into the game

00:39because I thought it could really propel you guys moving forward.

00:42How big does this feel right now?

00:44Very important, man.

00:45Football is a game of momentum.

00:47And when you win a divisional primetime game

00:50on Thursday night in a short week, in that fashion,

00:53with your running back rushing for over 100 yards

00:55and, you know, your quarterback having 300-plus yards passing,

00:58and you go out there and win on a two-minute drive,

01:00showing up when you need it most,

01:02you get a game ball from your head coach, man.

01:05To me, that's what it's about.

01:06So it was a must-win.

01:08Yeah, I think it's massive.

01:10I think a lot of people are going to feel good going into the weekend.

01:13I feel like a lot of people are going to feel good going into next week.

01:16I feel like this is what the team needed,

01:17is just a little bit of confidence.

01:19I feel like there's no telling what this team can do.

01:22We've got a lot of talented guys,

01:24and I feel like guys are going to come through whenever we need them.

01:29I think it's something to really build on

01:31and really proud of everyone, how they played,

01:35and how we didn't let things phase us.

01:37We were down with two minutes left, man.

01:39So I had to go on a game-winning drive and got it done.

01:42I called this a must-win.

01:44I called it a must-win coming into the game.

01:45Now that you guys have the win, how important is it to get this win?

01:50I mean, backs against the wall, White Tiger at home in the division.

01:55Yeah, it was as close to a must-win in week seven as you can possibly get,

01:59so got her done.
