🕵️‍♂️ Transcript:

you know mik touched on the but just to B for you guys to go out win at home been a little bit I know you guys talked about that during the week wanted to get back to winning yeah that was a big win you know I thought uh it felt like a playoff atmosphere man I thought the crowd was amazing just felt like our our team was locked in and focused the entire game um hard fought game I thought Arizona played really tough um you know just overall our defense was outstanding man Leonard wrecking the game the way spoon was flying around uh Kobe you know getting a pick six man that was awesome uh really really lit up the crowd and then thought you know we were efficient you know for the most part on offense obviously had some mistakes that we need to clean up but um overall whenever you win the game it’s always a good thing how big was just that last offensive drive you completed a couple passes on third down when you had his SC before and then Mike just told us that you kind of checked to the Run by by Zach that got you the other one there just kind of how big was that yeah that was a huge drive for us um you know especially you know we had driven the ball just just the drive before and obviously made a terrible mistake down there something I got to clean up but um yeah it was a big drive we wanted to put the game ahead at least two scores um our defense was playing lights out we wanted to get those guys a chance to pin their ears back and you know really get after ker and um you know I thought just driving the ball in the fourth quarter eight minute drive mix of runs mix of passes um just big plays by everybody I thought it was huge for our team and really speaks volumes to where we’re become who we’re becoming as an offense Jason third straight game he’s been kind of good to guy for you just what’s he showing you these past few games yeah I mean he’s getting open um he’s catching the ball he’s doing a great job in the screen game uh he’s an all-around great player and I just think you know the way that teams are playing us coverage wise um I feel like it’s the ultimate sign of respect man they’re just playing a lot of Zone dropping eight um we don’t really get man coverage anymore they’re not really blitzing us anymore so um you know he’s going to be able to find those windows in there and uh he does a great job at finding Pockets um in the in the zone coverage and then if there’s a scramble situation uh he’s always friendly he always you know finds me and he you know gets in the right spot and I thought that helped us out today when did you start to notice that shift and how defenses were playing you guys really last year but um I I didn’t think it was going to be as much as it is now but it’s it’s definitely been been a lot what’s been like for you as an offensive player watching the defense do not just dominate but do it against highly potent offensive teams man it just shows you um we’re building something here and you know we talk about complimentary football we CH talk about Championship level football when you got a defense that plays the way they play um when they’re shutting down offensive is the way they’re shutting them down at at the high rate week after week it’s going to give you a shot to win every single game if we go out there and we play clean we manage the um time of possession uh we do great on third down finish in the Red Zone give those guys a lead to play with I mean they’re going to be even even better so um I think our defense is is outstanding and I think they can can continue to get better and I think they will the leag long enough to know seasons can change like this but for a younger team that maybe a couple weeks ago it looked pretty bleak how big is a turn around this suddenly them yeah I don’t you you know that’s a great question honestly I don’t think it was Bleak um you know to be fair I think this is uh what happens in the NFL man you go through some tough stretches and you said it you we’re a young team but we got a lot of veterans and um guys who’ve been through this type of stuff know that you just got to keep plugging at it you keep got got to keep working keep believing um you’re never out of it you know again we got a long ways to go um a six game stretch now going going uh you know down the down the stretch and every game’s going to feel like a playoff game every game’s going to count um we’re learning lessons I’m still learning lessons at my age and we’re all all learning so we just got to take it take it all in stride and keep going the pass to jsn to set up your first touchdown looked like they were kind of they were blitzing on that play did you that just kind of the perfect play call or did you guys perfect play call man perfect play call they were in a zero Blitz we were in empty a 4 by one uh I’m looking at it like should I check out and I’m like no I mean if these guys engage uh we should if I can get the ball to Jackson it should be a big hit right behind him and I thought the line did a great job at at bluffing and then getting up the field Jackson obviously catching the ball had to break one tackle and then you know being explosive like he is you said they don’t you said they don’t Blitz a lot but they were bringing corners and safeties linebackers they were mixing in Sim pressures against you guys first half what did you see starting to change a little bit once you guys had those first four drives out of the way able to take care of that a little better cuz I think you were sacked four times those first couple drives yeah I mean a couple of them were um you know just a fourman rush and uh yeah they got to me maybe once or twice with the same pressure um I can think about the one backed up uh they got to me on that one but for the most most part it was just you know us handling the fourman rush and the Twist and the stunt games and once we got that you know figured out I thought we were better in protection uh they did call a couple cover zeros um couple that you know cost them ultimately and you know then they started to check out of the zero so I mean it’s always that game of cat Mouse and um that’s what I love that’s what I love about playing quarterback is you know we get the chance to make the right call at the right time and help our team what you think of Kobe Bryant to Marsh Lynch in the end zone man um please don’t find him NFL let him keep his money I thought that was great man I thought he did a great job jumping that route fourth down uh and then as I’m watching him run down the sideline I’m like jumping out of my seats I tried to I tried to run down there and meet him but um just how hard he’s working you know um he he’s the type of guy who loves football he’s always around the ball making plays and you know for him to make that play right there I know was a special moment for him do you know obviously there was what was at stake with first place on the line in the division but what did it mean to get this win just given everything that was going on in the city and what you guys went through at your headquarters this week yeah I mean it was huge man I know uh our city um was hurting for a couple days without power and uh that’s funny cuz they were electric to today and uh you know I felt like they really brought the juice for us and we wanted to repay our fans we always want our fans to you know be excited and be happy for our team and uh the more we win the more that builds so we we got to keep this thing going G what was the mood like in there like for you guys to snap the four game losing streak here at home and and kind of get this one in this way yeah I think the guys were excited you know everyone’s excited but um you know Kobe said it best man it’s time to get back to work you know we got another big game coming up uh we got to fly out you know east coast and we got to be prepared um it’s the NFL every team’s going to be good they’re all going to be trying to get wins and we got to come out flying next week anything else thank you sir thank you guys
