Chiling after last week? Did your mindset change it all going into this game? Maybe something to prove. No, it didn't change, you know what I mean, just you know, giving giving everything I got, You know what I mean, whether it's um run our past, when you're on the sideline and you're watching the offense, what was the like seeing person back out there leading the offense structor I mean, I've been watching it these past two weeks, you know
what I mean, these elusive still I was. I was saying, we had that one spin spin out player and he threw the ball down the field out like he might well take the knee breast out because he looks like he will need it. How about the penalties you guys where you go, you know what I mean, penalties kill you offense defense. So as a teams wherever it is, you know, coach always to because it always says, you know, we don't we don't need any penance, want to go
in and out of a game with zero penalty. So for sure there's a possible that you guys will develop a certain kind of confidence. We didn't get those situations where late lake game, red zone situations at Atlantic, not even the playoffs putting the role in the regular season today, and of course it's ball. You had the whole land of the end zone. I mean, did you get any the defense game confidence but a big, a little situation. I wouldn't say confidence. I would say, um, comfortable, you
know what I mean. We we've practiced those throughout OTAs, throughout camp, and then we've been in him so many times, you know, throughout the resident season last year, and then like you said, this year, um, with the first game. So I think we're just comfortable with if it comes down to that, you know, trust and got next to
you and just playing great technique. When you talk about those penalties after that big pass interference call on you in first quarter, I think it was uh, just bouncing back and continuing to make big plays the way you did. How do you shake something like that off mentally? And you gotta know, you know me, at the end of the day, Um, he's a top two receiver, you know what I mean, And and um, we just gotta let us battle out there. That was one thing I told
the ref. I said, if he called it, you called it. You know what I mean. By the end of the day, you know, please let us battle out here, you know. I mean I'm looking back for the ball, Um, But no, you just got to keep going. I mean it was in the first quarter, got three more quarters left. I'm a competitor, I mean I want to go out there and win. I don't care who's in front of me. Um. And at the end of the day, we got a
great team win. Is it fun to match up against a guy of that level to go out there and say one on one, let's go the two of us. As as a competitor, that's what you want, That's what you That's what you're trained for, you know. I mean, that's what you put your body through, you know, UM, hard training. Know whether you're in I mean I'm from Texas being in a hundred degree heat, whatever it may be.
I mean, that's what you're trained for. And I have to ask, what was it like seeing Carson back out there? But what kind of emotional boost does that give the whole team? It's everything. I mean, he's the leader of our team, you know what I mean. And he not only shows it, you know, on the field, he shows
it off the field. He shows it. Um studying film, you know, being the first one, you know in a facility, you know, I mean, usually the last one to leave, so I think just by him coming back, you know, it was everything for us
