Speaker 1

You know, it's been a while to have that many carries. But uh, you know it was fun and um, you know, the team played great, the Lion played awesome, and uh we I think we have fun today. Are you the kind of guy who will leave here we're celebrating, you know, the performance or lamenting the turnover? Uh, I mean it's it's it's a win. You know, we won the game. So you know that's that's at the end of the day.

You know that that's really all that matters. Um, you know, stats or anything don't mean nothing to me, you know, as long as we get that w So your coach seeing that, you say that you were the sightsive one cut in life running? Uh when the quarterback, which I just essentially, what about that makes you a better runner? Uh? I feel like I could see a little bit better, you know. Um you know, Uh, I don't know. I just I mean I like running when he's in the

gun too. So don't don't get don't get me wrong, but you know, I just I think it's just I think I run better from from under. Uh. I mean I think I just see a lot more than what I do usually. When you know, the quarterbacks in the gun. But you know it's just something I gotta work on and then get better at challenge of their of their defensive front. When you guys were scouting them during the reap,

what do they do so well? They play hard? Um, you know big guys, you know the fast, physical and uh you know we knew coming to this game is it's gonna be you know, you know, a dog fight. So you know, my guys did a great job up front. You know, they they worked the tails off today and they deserve all the credit to finally get that running game established. Uh you know for all of us, I think I think it's it's it's it's a plus, you know. Um, you know we can do it. We know we can

do it. Uh you know, it's just putting that first leg in the water, you know, and uh you know, getting the going did it? Um on the flip site like the drop past. I bet you wish youd have that all that. I mean, Uh, you make mistakes. You know, it's a game. You're not gonna be perfect. Um you know, but uh you know, like I said, we won the game twenty seven yeard run on the third place from scrimmage for you and the team kind of helped get things going with the running game. Did you pick running?

I mean, it's it's it's I mean, it feels them, you know, get them pumped up. You know when when you make big games like that, and um, you know everyone feeds off each other, you know. And then uh, like I said, everyone was having fun today, everyone was was firing and uh and everyone's playing what do you kind of thing just to kind of get the chance. I mean the first two games in run the ball very much and you know here obviously the Marcos out and get back. So not my first rodeo. You know,

I played the game before and I started the game before. Um, you know, uh, you know it's fun. It's fun to get back out there and run and uh you know, just uh step in for for a good great running back, you know, to take it bead short fields when you had going up against your defense. Uh, it was it really Uh, I mean, we we have to do it, you know. It's it's it's something that you know we work on and and and practice every day and uh you know it's uh something we gonna can continue to

get better. Nobody expected for Carriage, though. The first two games for you. Was it disappointing, was it frustrating? Surprising? What's your mind set after those two games? I mean I knew it all signing up. When when I when I signed here. Um, you know, got the Marko on sprosy. You know, back there two great running backs. So you know, I just gotta wait my wait for my turn, wait for my number to be called. Right, How would you describe just kind of the mood in the locker room? Um,

after the first win. Uh, this is great. It's always good to get that first one out of the way, you know. Um, you know we've had you know, two bad weeks, you know, the first couple of weeks, and uh, you know, we gotta keep getting better. You know, this is this is no, this is the beginning of I think of something great. What what did you see? It's twenty three yard? You know, the real your touchdowns past seen yard. It seemed like that was open to Uh.

I mean, I just do what I was supposed to do. Um. You know the linebacker played it, you know, a little low, you know, and I got over the top of him. Sam seen it, and uh, you know he tries to running backs. You know, even though I put two on the ground. He's he's, he's, he's still gonna go to us, and uh, you know, it's it's, it's, it's it's a chemistry. You know. We work on it, you know, a lot, and uh, you know, it's it's just fun. How's the body,

how's the body? How's the body feeling after after such a workload. It's been a while, it's been a whiles. I had had cares like that, but it is, it's fun. It's a great feeling, you know, especially after the win. Um, you know, gonna come back watching on the mall, working on mistakes and get better and get ready for next week. Your style really fits what y'all were trying to do today, just getting what you could out of every place? Is that your mindset? Just you know, don't dance around and

try to see what's there, just take what's there. Yeah, yeah, I feel like, you know, the more I dance around, the more defenders are gonna be on me, you know, trying to hit me. So you know, I try to get you know, the quickest you know way to point a to point bas a straight line, so you know, try and get get there as far as I can. Thanks guys,
