How much of a character, but the character was
, yeah, it was a good win anytime you
can get a win in this league, it's huge
. Um, and, uh, that's a good
opponent. Uh, so much respect for the coaches
on that, on that opposite team and the players
on that, on that Washington team. Um,
again, so much respect for coach Quinn, he's
done an unbelievable job. Uh, so we knew
we had to be on it today and so we
played a good opponent on a short week, um
, and it was big to get a win.
I saw you go over to Jake Elliott. He
was having his struggles. What did you say?
He's, he's, I mean, Jake's been so
clutch his entire career, his entire career and his
entire time that I've been here too. And,
um, just, you know, just like I
would say to somebody that fumbled or dropped a pass
in a, in a, in a moment,
you know, we believe in you, you're gonna
have to make a kick to, to help us
win this football game. And, uh, you
know, he did to get us, uh,
up, uh, that 16 points and, and
eight points or whatever it was. But, you
know, we, we have so much faith in
him and, uh, you know, that's,
that's what you, that's what you do when,
when, when the, the connection happens, I
think connections happen, um when you can really build
connections through tough times, right? And so obviously
he was going through a tough time, but,
you know, this team believes so much in Jake
Elliott. Uh you know, because of his track
record and who he is and the, the teammate
he is the captain, he is and just wanted
to let him know that we all believed in him
and can't wait for him to get his opportunity to
, to go out and do it again. Terry
mclaren only had one catch, didn't, didn't see
it until the fourth quarter, I think, uh
Q lined up against him 20 times and he had
zero targets. What was the key to shut it
down? I think, you know, first and
foremost, uh Terry Morin is a phenomenal football player
. Um Man, I liked him coming out.
Um And when I was in Indie, he's an
Indianapolis kid. We, you know, a lot
of, we did a lot of work on him
and just really think the world of him, the
player, the person um he's had, he's been
awesome in his career. Um With that being said
, I think our guys did a nice job going
against him. I think it started up front,
we were able to get some pressure on the quarterback
, um, and, and for some scrambles and
, and we did a good job plastering on some
of those scrambles, um, but just good team
defense and, and a lot of credit to Q
A lot of credit to slay, a lot of
credit to the underneath coverage that was, was helping
them go other places with the football or, you
know, I I, it just takes, again
, being on good team defense takes being on the
same page, uh, playing with great, um
, effort um to the football.
