00:00 Let me see where to start. I think I just finished telling the team, you know, we felt like this was going to be a pretty physical game
00:07 We had a lot of respect for this team
00:10 You know, they came in here obviously with a real good record
00:14 Both how they played defensively and how they rushed the football. We felt like the rushing
00:19 numbers were going to be real important when this game ended and
00:24 Credit our players on defense Vance and his staff we got into you know some heavier fronts to
00:30 try to take away one of their strengths and
00:32 fortunately, we jumped ahead early on in that first half and
00:37 Again we have a game we have three takeaways. I think that's four weeks in a row now
00:44 We were better in the red zone there were a lot of things we did today that
00:52 That I was pleased with and we felt like we beat a good football team. So any questions?
00:57 Yeah, Sean, could you just talk about a couple of your strategies both sides of the ball the single safety?
01:03 You said heavier front on defense. Yeah, I mean it's nothing new in our league, but just
01:08 the personnel relative to it, so
01:12 We just got into some heavier fronts that that we're going to make it more challenging
01:18 to run it and then
01:21 With the idea that we're going to force them to throw it some and they did you know when look we gave up some
01:26 Completions and you know, fortunately, you know, we held him to field goals when that happened and then on offense
01:32 It looked like you wanted to make sure you ran the ball first. Yeah
01:35 Yeah, we we felt the time of possession all these things that kept coming up and their victories were very
01:43 very telling
01:46 So, how do you combat that you know, how do you
01:50 How do you approach that game and
01:52 You know, we knew we were gonna have to have balance
01:56 and then we were able to capitalize with some touchdowns and good field position and
02:03 And I feel like we played with a lot of good field position when you keep getting the takeaways that we're getting
02:08 You know, you're gonna have short field. So
02:10 You know a lot of a lot of good things, you know, I felt like again it was going to be a physical game
02:17 I felt like that was something that that we handled. Well, I thought we were real physical
02:22 and
02:24 in the kicking game also
