Zac Taylor on Bengals' Playoff Rematch With Bills

Transcript

00:00 That's certainly something you reference.

00:01 You know, the playoff game, I mean,

00:02 it was obviously at the end of last season.

00:05 But two teams that have a lot of the same talent, you know?

00:09 And so, we've got what? How many games have we got?

00:12 Seven games maybe we've watched.

00:15 So, any time you've played a team in the last half season,

00:17 you kind of always make sure you get that.

00:54 and do all the things that we know are important.

00:56 I think what is good is there's a lot of guys on this team

00:59 who have experienced continued success before,

01:02 and they know how hard it is.

01:04 And so, they're not going to be fooled by having a big road win

01:07 and thinking, "Oh, we've arrived here in week eight.

01:10 Not even close."

01:11 And so, that is the benefit of having the team that we have,

01:17 to continue this, and I know that they're willing
