00:00I thought all three phases did a nice job tonight, starting with the O-line and D-line.

00:08They both put a lot of pressure on the quarterback and took the pressure off the quarterback and we ran the ball well.

00:15So my hat goes off to those guys.

00:17How proud are you of those guys for being able to find ways to enter the rivalry better?

00:22Yeah, so these guys, you get tired of me saying it, but they don't flinch on all that stuff.

00:27They just, the next guy up and he goes.

00:30And so I'm proud of them for that.

00:32There's an attitude in the locker room.

00:34That those guys, it has to start with that group there.

00:37I think it's a credit to not only the guys, I mean, and how hard they work,

00:41but Coach Reed and just knowing their skill sets and how to put them in great positions.

00:44And I mean, Kareem just runs extremely hard.

00:48He gets every yard out there, catches the ball, does whatever it takes in order to go out there and win.

00:52And then Juju, even when he wasn't getting as many reps, he was in the playbook.

00:56He was learning the things that he had lost over one year.

00:58But I mean, y'all saw him two years ago.

01:00I mean, he fits in well in this offense.

01:02And so he did a great job today.

01:04Actor, what was your view on Travis' lateral, how that unfolded?

01:10I mean, I'm shaking my head because I told him before the playoffs

01:13that I'm going to throw it to you so he can get in the field goal range.

01:15And he underhand shoveled it across the entire field.

01:20So I mean, it's like I'm talking to Sterling.

01:24So it's like, it's like, it's, no, it was, that's Travis, man.

01:27He's just, he's a special player.

01:29And as long as he does it and it works, man, no one's going to say anything.
