What was to be this year. Sure, I think it was uh, exactly how we wanted to come out. You know, it was an emphasis on in you know, past seasons us coming out slow starts. We knew that we needed to come in and set the tone right from the jump, offense, defense, special teams. I think across the board, we we did exactly what we wanted to do and execute it. What's that feeling like we were able to do game? Uh, great feeling, you know, Uh, that's exactly how you wanna
start it. You know, I'm I'm obviously thinking about all the all the players that we could have had back, you know at the end of the of the first half and then the second half. But to come out and start that way against a team that, honestly throughout the preseason they were hot. You know, I'm sure they had a lot of confidence coming in, and uh, we
just came out and executed Christians long touchdown. The receivers were on the defense and training campus offense that I don't know if there is I haven't seen it, like like how we do it. I Mean, that's that's an emphasis on that side, is if you wanna if you wanna play it and you wanna start at that pl a position. It's not about just catching the ball. They they do a heck of a job downfield blocking as aggressively. If I, as I've seen, you're playing behind him. How
good was that? The that's life play amazing, amazing, and and I knew that was gonna be the case. You know, I don't know if we'd had all all those guys healthy out there all camp. You know, Uh, obviously we had to Uh we had both to come back late, and uh, having everybody healthy out there, you saw what the result was. What were your impressions of up games just coming note like this, I don't know, I have to watch. He didn't have a sex so he was a little upset about that. But uh, oh my gosh,
you kidding me. But just having him out there was a huge boost to not only our our defense but the team injury since beginning. Dad. You know the I I my my coach Johnny Holland always says, the harder you work, the lucky you get. And uh, you know that that's the say that we don't. We don't believe in luck. I I believe in hard work. And uh, you know, reaving what you sow and I think that he's worked his tail off all off season, and uh for him to come out and have a game like that,
it's such a big confidence boost to himself. And we're gonna need it all season. You know. We need everybody to uh play a big, big role on this defense. And I was so happy for him today. A big buildings absolutely, Uh, anytime he's out of there out there on that field. He's one of the best defensive players in the NFL. So they got to count for him every single play, alright,
